Like many things Kanye turns his hand to, controversy and show has followed, but some have praised the designer for his choice of models and what they stand for.
“We do have to give [Kanye] props for the model casting, though,” Refinery29‘s Liza Darwin said of the lookbook.  

“While [Kanye’s] runway show employed some stunt casting (his teenage stepsister Kylie Jenner made her debut), it also featured a refreshing diversity, which has been maintained here: The photos include men and women of various ages, sizes, and ethnicities.”

Others are pictured modeling a collection of bulky outerwear, including fur-trimmed parkas and padded vests.
