Perhaps the most entertaining thing about Kanye West’s Yeezy Season 4 fashion show on Roosevelt Island (besides Sofia Richie’s surprise appearance) was the part where models began falling down and breaking their shoes. Aside from the “blistering reviews”, Kanye West is also being accused of “cruelty” to models at the New York Fashion Week.

At least one model is believed to have fainted, while othersresorted to taking a quick sit down when the opportunity arose. The show was panned by critics for starting two hours later than scheduled and for leaving dozens of models standing in the heat, at least one of whom passed out. Beyonce! The “Hold Up” singer posted no less than six different Instagram photos and videos from Yeezy’s show at Madison Square Garden on September 7, including a series of stop-motion shots of her dancing and having fun with Jay Z.
The discontent from fans, fashion enthusiasts, and fellow designers prompted West to say a few words. The heat drove numerous female participants to sit down during the show and some models even fainted.
“I feel like the Cavs previous year when Kyrie got hurt”, ‘Ye told the crowd after performing a portion of “Black Skinhead”. Unfortunately, Yeezy’s newest season ran into some obstacles. “No, I tried to listen to all the reports and shit and I tried my best to stop trying”.
“I had, like, half-shoes on, so they just slipped off, and I couldn’t get them back on, so I took them off”, she said. “I can go there most often, check in, get the vibe”. I couldn’t stop! No matter what they write, I just just couldn’t stop!
In one Instagram video taken by a fashion writer for the New York Observer, a model in a black coat nearly falls over as her heels snap on the runway.
Later the rapper appeared to talk about his show in a series of tweets.

Of course, Kim K loved the selfie aspect and shared it on Snapchat, and we’re pretty sure it inspired her as much as Kylie’s Tumblr.
