in the world of fashion, hell! in the world- its all about who you know. you may have spotted that beautiful light-skinned chick on the arm of kanye west for most of this year & asked, “who is that girl?” her name? amber rose. a rumored ex-stripper from philly, if im not mistaken, amber rose & her public celebrity persona have sparked media & internet buzz since we first spotted her platinum buzz cut alongside kanye. soon after kanye west split from his engagement to designer, alexis phifer- he was then seen at events with the stunning amber rose. she began to draw attention from all corners of the hiphop community & now her image expansion is reaching more far outwards. featured in kanye west’s ads for his louis vuitton footwear completely naked, amber rose was quoted saying: “my celebrity is a gift to me”. amber has taken matters into her own hands & has reportedly recieved kanye’s blessing to spread her wings. necole bitchie reported via global grind, a media based network used to source information within the hip-hop community, that rose has signed with ford models. after digging from source to source i found a directly composed blog by amber rose via global grind stating officially, that amber has signed with ford models. i think its interesting that amber has taken opportunities to sign with ford & think its dope that she finds & acknowledges that her celebrity status is a blessing- i think it would be a change of pace to see what type of work she will be afforded being represented by ford. no doubt the bitch is fly & her style is out of control- shes been known to fuck with leggings & ill accessories on the regular when spotted around town with kanye west.  seemingly, kanye is planning a fashion take over interning at louis vuitton, while his vuitton footwear collection boasts a waiting list & ‘sold out’ status; in addition, reports i’ve read have said that kanye has a secret internship over at GAP & even stayed past midnight working with the creative team. though im not a fan of his overeager promos of himself i do admire the fact that his approach to fashion is much more technical & industry driven. reportedly, kanye himself is set to release a clothing line dubbed, “pastelle”. i guess we’ll have to wait & see exactly what amber rose has up her sleeves with ford models & much of the hiphop community adores kanye west. more of these or relating stories to be posted as received. bridging the gap between hiphop & the fashion world. you gotta respect it. stay tuned. [SOURCE]
