Kanye West is making his American Vogue debut in the March 2012 issue sitting next to Givenchys creative director Riccardo Tisci. He is featured in the magazine shirtless with Florence Welch of Florence + the Machine sitting on his lap. This may be a huge move for Kanye since hes plotting to take over the fashion world. According to reports, he recently moved to London so that he could be taken more serious as a fashion designer.

And If you were wondering where he was when he should have been bringing life to the Grammys (while winning 4 awards), he was in his studio in London getting ready to premiere his second Ready-to-Wear line during Paris Fashion Week. But thats not all hes rumored to be designing. Apparently hes working with Sir Philip Green of Topshop to launch his own womens line for the UK based retailer. The two had lunch last week and allegedly were throwing some ideas around for the new line, however Sir Philip quickly shot down rumors of a collab saying, I had lunch with him and sorry, do I have to report who I have lunch with in The Daily Mirror? He was very hungry. So was I. Thats what happens at lunchtime. There was no conversation going on. Hes a friend of my son.

Meanwhile, As early as this morning, Kanye West was spotted at the Top Shop headquarters in London. Check the pic and tweets:


Kanye is focused!

His second collection will debut on March 6th at 9:30pm during Paris Fashion Week.
