It’s been an undoubtedly chaotic year for Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori. The Chicago rapper has hunkered down in Tokyo to work on his upcoming album BULLY, which fans expect to hear sometime in 2025. He’s also been hit with various lawsuits in recent months, the most recent arriving just last week. Ye even sold his Malibu mansion a couple of months back, losing a staggering $36 million in the process.
As for Censori, she frequently makes headlines for her daring fashion statements, which she usually shows off while out and about with her husband. Their latest outing was no exception, but this time around, Ye matched her energy with a similarly striking outfit. In new photos obtained by TMZ, the high-profile pair is seen standing on an escalator at a mall in the Japanese capital, both rocking all-white attire.
Kanye West & Bianca Censori Out And About In Tokyo
Ye wore a white hoodie and a matching pair of sweatpants. Censori, on the other hand, stunned in what looked like a snug white bodysuit. They both appeared to be in good spirits, laughing as they made their way through the mall. We’re not permitted to post the images directly on HotNewHipHop.

Fans are glad to see that the two of them were all smiles, as the same can’t be said for another one of their recent outings. Earlier this month, they were spotted having dinner at a restaurant in Tokyo, but they were frowning and looked depressed. It remains unclear exactly why they were down in the dumps at the time. Fortunately, however, it seems as though things have turned around for the better.
Brat summer might be over, but Charli XCX is the gift that keeps on giving. Just this season, Charli dropped the star-studded Brat remix album,brat and it’s completely different but also still brat (see the Billie Eilish-assisted “Guess” remix, produced by indie sleaze icon The Dare), announced a link-up and starring role in director Pete Ohs Erupcja, joined the cast of Romain Gavras’ Sacrifice, snagged nine Grammy nominations (including Album of the Year), and is now starring in a new campaign from Stockholm, Sweden-based brand Acne Studios with a photoshoot shot by renowned New York photographer Talia Chetrit.
The world can’t seem to get enough. We’re psyched not just because we’re massive Charli fans, but we love collaborations that make sense and Acne Studios, with its high-fashion meets streetwear aesthetic, is oozing with brat vibes.
The new collection mostly focuses on shoulder bags and baggy-fit jeans but also dips into accessories like padlock chain necklaces, metal frame sunglasses, as other staples like skirts, heels, and iridescent mini dresses. Just about everything from the collection looks straight out of a Charli XCX video, with the exception of the scarfs, which are way more demure than anything associated with this era of Charli.

Bianca Censori never fails to capture fans’ attention with her daring and oftentimes scandalous fashion statements. This week is certainly no exception, as her recent shopping spree look turned plenty of heads. The Australian model and architect was spotted out and about in Los Angeles yesterday, hitting up a Williams Sonoma store to do some shopping. She did so in a white mini-dress and a pair of sheer lace tights. She tied everything together with some simple white heels.
Censori walked out with an entire cart full of new items. While it’s unclear exactly what she bought, it appears as though it was mostly home goods. This makes sense considering her husband Kanye West just bought a new home in Beverly Hills last month. The mansion cost him a whopping $35 million, which was still far less than he paid for his recently sold Malibu property.
In September, he sold the Malibu abode to Belwood Investments CEO Bo Belmont for $21 million. Ye took a major loss, as he paid $57 million for it only three years ago. Allegedly, he had plans to convert the mansion into a bomb shelter, which ultimately did not pan out. Shortly after the sale, Belmont criticized Ye for the changes he made to the property, claiming he “single-handedly destroyed this architectural masterpiece.”
As for Censori, this is far from the first time she’s made headlines for her fashion statements as of late. Earlier this month, for example, she was seen with Ye at McDonald’s in Tokyo, sporting stylish all-silver attire. She also channeled Marilyn Monroe for Halloween in October, putting her own creative spin on the icon’s signature look.

Here at Uproxx, we believe collaborations are the spice of life — fashion collabs, artist collabs, and everything in between, if two or more entities that we’re already fans of come together to produce something greater than the sum of their parts, we’re hyped about it.
This is why every Friday, we’re going to be running down the best collabs of the week. There are no hard and fast rules here, if it’s a collaboration that has us excited for any reason, it’s fair game. So, we’ll be wading through the muck to find the collaborations you need to care about on a weekly basis.
This week we’ve got link-ups between Rick Owens and Moncler, Supreme and Jane’s Addiction, SKIMS, Tate McCrae, and Harmony Korine, and we’re closing with Central Cee’s COLORS performance. Let’s dive in.
Rick Owens x Moncler FW24
Every Gen-Z dude’s favorite brand, Rick Owens, is linking up with the Italian fashion house Moncler once again for a fall/winter 2024 outwear collection. The collection straddles the line between luxury runway fashion and winter-focused basics. Expect lots of parkas, bomber jackets, and jumpsuits in a mix of cashmere and quilt dressed up in a minimalist yet slightly edgy (or at the very least unconventional) aesthetic.
Sure, some of the pieces are comfortably conventional, but for every slightly elevated down jacket or puffer vest, you’ve got a piece that’ll make you look like a glammed-up high-fashion sith lord. But that’s what makes Rick Owens so damn fun.
The Rick Owens x Moncler FW2024 collection is available now. Shop the collection at Rick Owens or Moncler.
Supreme x Jane’s Addiction Fall 2024 Collection
Beloved ‘90s weirdos Jane’s Addiction are back — or at least they were back. The band embarked on a tour this year but on-stage fighting led them to abruptly cancel, which is a shame for Jane’s Addiction fans, but hey, at least we’re getting a Supreme collaboration out of it!
The collection is conceptually pretty simple, it takes classic Supreme staples like Mechanics Jackets, cardigans, and hoodies, marked with graphic prints of Jane’s Addiction album and poster iconography and lyrics. The collection was supposed to serve as a victory lap for the band, but now it is a small consolation for the letdown fans. If only you could trade in those tickets for pieces from the collection!
The Supreme x Jane’s Addiction Fall 2024 collection is available now at Supreme.
Tate McCrae Stars In SKIMS Holiday Shop
SKIMS is always linking up with the most cutting-edge main pop girlies, from Charli XCX, Sabrina Carpenter, to Rosalia, and now the brand has tapped Tate McCrae to star in its Holiday Shop collection.
The Holiday Shop Collection features loungey staples and lingerie in SKIMS minimalist aesthetic, though if you love patterns there are plenty of snow-flake, leopard print, and mistletoe-adorned pieces that reflect the cozy season.
But we’re not here to talk about the clothes, we’re here for the collaboration, and this is a great one! The ad campaign was shot by Harmony Korine of Spring Breakers and Kids fame, and has a sheen to it that echoes the bright and loud photography of early 00s-era David LaChappelle.
Tate McRae looks great and exudes confidence. We’re fully expecting 2025 to be McRae’s year.
Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance SONNY Basketball Capsule
Aimé Leon Dore’s SONNY Youth Club is an NYC-based program that provides mentorship and a place to play for young athletes in the city, and recently, the Baseketball Club took their talents to an international tournament in Paris and to mark the event, ALD teamed up with New Balance for a new collection of footwear and apparel.
We love the retro vibes of this collection, which includes hoodies, jackets, tank tops, footwear and other off and on-court staples that feature SONNY branding done in a throwback ‘70s and early ‘80s aesthetic.
The Aimé Leon Dore x New Balance SONNY Basketball Capsule is set to drop on November 1st at 7:00 AM ET. Shop the collection at ALD.
100 Thieves x Adidas Drop 002
The LA-based lifestyle and e-sports brand 100 Thieves is teaming up with Adidas Originals for the duo’s second drop of the year. The two brands joined forces earlier this year, but that collection played things relatively safe. We’re glad to see 100 Thieves get a bit more comfortable this time around by infusing more of its aesthetic personality into the collaboration.
The collection features everything from apparel to footwear, and accessories with a sporty-meets-utilitarian aesthetic. Considering the first drop was a success, and this one is looking even better, it’s safe to say Adidas is throwing itself into the e-sports ring (battlefield?) with full force.
The 100 Thieves x Adidas Drop 002 is set to hit the 100 Thieves website on November 2nd at 10 AM PST. Check out the full collection here.
Bianca Censori frequently makes headlines for her head-turning fashion statements, and her latest Halloween look was no exception. Yesterday (October 31), the Australian architect and model popped out to a club in Harajuku, Japan. She was accompanied by her husband, Kanye West, and appeared to be in good spirits.
Censori stunned in a baby blue turtleneck, nude shorts, and a simple pair of heels. For those wondering why she wasn’t in costume, it appears as though she and Ye celebrated Halloween earlier this week. She channeled Marilyn Monroe for an outing in Tokyo, rocking short blonde hair and an unforgettable white fur jacket.
As for Censori’s other recent looks, she was also spotted yesterday in a far skimpier fit at a Maison Margiela party. She left little to the imagination with a pair of lace pasties. It remains unclear whether this was supposed to be a costume or simply another one of her daring looks. Coincidentally enough, those photos surfaced just shortly after reports that she and Ye had allegedly been doing therapy sessions together in the nude.
“People assume that it’s just Bianca who walks around without any clothes on, but behind closed doors, Ye is really embracing his own fetish for being in the buff,” a source alleged during a chat with In Touch. “Kanye loves being naked, he has this huge exhibitionist side — it’s actually a shock to a lot of people in his world that he covers up so much when he’s out in public because the rest of the time he hardly wears clothes.” What do you think of Bianca Censori’s latest Halloween look?

Pharrell and ASAP Rocky are among several celebrities who will serve as co-chairs for the upcoming 2025 Met Gala. The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced the group as well as the event’s theme on Wednesday afternoon. Rocky and Pharrell will be joined by Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, and Anna Wintour as co-chairs with LeBron James serving as an honorary chair. The title of the event will be “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”
“The Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition will present a cultural and historical examination of the Black dandy, from the figure’s emergence in Enlightenment Europe during the 18th century to today’s incarnations in cities around the world,” the exhibition’s description reads. “… Historically, the term dandy was used to describe someone—often a man—who is extremely devoted to style and approaches it as a discipline. Dandyism was initially imposed on Black men in 18th-century Europe as the Atlantic slave trade and an emerging culture of consumerism created a trend of fashionably dressed, or dandified, servants.”
The announcement for Pharrell comes ahead of the release of his highly-anticipated new film, Piece by Piece, which hits theaters later this week. The animated biographical film will tell the story of Pharrell’s life and career through Legos. Gwen Stefani, Kendrick Lamar, Timbaland, Justin Timberlake, Busta Rhymes, Jay-Z, and Snoop Dogg all lent their voices to the project.
ASAP Rocky, on the other hand, is preparing for the release of his highly-anticipated fourth studio album, Don’t Be Dumb. He originally planned to drop back in August but delayed the project. Be on the lookout for further updates on Pharrell and Asap Rocky as well as the 2025 Met Gala on HotNewHipHop.
Bianca Censori never fails to make headlines with her flashy and frequently scandalous fashion choices. According to The Jasmine Brand, however, not everyone is on board. A source reportedly tells the outlet that Kim Kardashian has a major problem with Censori wearing racy outfits around her children. Of course, Kardashian is the ex of Kanye West, who Censori is currently married to.
“Kim is in a terrible spot,” the source claimed, “because Bianca has completely won over her kids.” They went on to accuse Ye and Censori of allowing the children to “stay up all night” and buying them “piles of candy.” They say that this makes it tough for Kardashian to compete.
“When they’re with Kanye, there are no rules, so of course they love being with them,” the source added. “If Kim says anything critical, they defend her, so it’s not like she can even bring up the fact that Bianca is practically naked around them, even in public.” Reportedly, Kardashian has taken various steps to try to prevent Censori from dressing provocatively around her little ones. This has included asking for Ye’s help and even reaching out to Censori directly, according to the source.
Unfortunately, they claim that nothing has helped, which has reportedly made Kardashian want to take things to the extreme. “She’d love to get a lawyer involved, but there’s not a lot she can do unless Bianca gets arrested. It’s awful, and Kim’s convinced Bianca and Kanye are purposely trying to mess with her,” the source stated. What do you think of a source telling The Jasmine Brand that Kim Kardashian reportedly has an issue with Bianca Censori wearing revealing outfits around her kids? Does this surprise you or not?

It’s no secret that Latto and Ice Spice don’t get along, but recently, the two of them were spotted in the exact same outfit. The outfit in question is a leopard print tank top and pants with lace details, which Latto was first seen wearing in Instagram photos in May of this year. Ice Spice wore it to twerk in a jet in her new music video for “Popa,” which she dropped last week.
Of course, this prompted theories that this was intentional on Ice Spice’s part. This remains a mystery, but Latto took to her Instagram Story today to seemingly acknowledge it. The “Sunday Service” rapper posted a meme of Princess Jasmine face-to-face with her ugly lookalike. While it’s unconfirmed whether or not this was a jab at Ice Spice, fans are convinced.
With that being said, this wouldn’t be the first time the two artists clashed over clothing. Last summer, Latto was seen sporting a pleated mini-skirt with a crop top and Von Dutch jacket. Some fans thought it looked like something straight out of the Bronx femcee’s closet, and apparently, so did she. At the time, an Ice Spice fan account shared a photo of Latto’s look, writing “No identity lmao.” Shortly after, Ice Spice posted a Tweet of her own, telling her followers “I h8 a b**ch wit no identity.”
Despite all of this apparent shade, Ice Spice insists that there are no issues between her and Latto. During an interview with Rolling Stone in July, she called their rumored feud a joke. “I feel like if we ever spoke and I asked her ‘What’s the issue?’ it’d be like a blank stare. It’d really be no issue whatsoever. Especially from me,” she added. What do you think of Latto seemingly throwing shade on her Instagram Story?

Criticism is certainly nothing new for NLE Choppa, and unfortunately, it’s not limited to just his music and online antics. Over the weekend, the “Slut Me Out 2” rapper has been showing off his bold looks for New York Fashion Week. One of them features a long black skirt and a sheer top, two belts, and a pair of sunglasses. The other features sheer pants and a sheer top, which Choppa paired with various pieces of eye-catching jewelry.
Sadly, critics in 2Cool2Bl0g’s comments section were quick to weigh in on his fits, and most of them were less than impressed. “N***a went lingerie,” one writes. “Alright I’ve seen enough,” someone else says. While many of the comments are negative, others came to his defense, noting how he has a right to wear whatever he wants.
At the time of writing, NLE Choppa has yet to directly respond to the backlash. Earlier today, however, he took to his Instagram Story to share an inspirational message from his mother, Angela Potts. “People are so afraid to step out of their comfort zone, to come out of that shell, to get out of that box, dare to be different because of what someone else is going to say about them,” she explained. “Keep missing your blessings worrying about an opinion that doesn’t matter anyway.”
Clearly, this is some solid advice for the 21-year-old artist, as his fashion week fits aren’t the only thing earning him backlash these days. Earlier this month, he hopped online to announce that he was “coming out.” Shortly after, he followed up with a Tweet confirming that he was talking about a new project. What do you think of NLE Choppa showing off his looks for New York Fashion Week? Which one is your favorite?

Bianca Censori has been making plenty of headlines as of late for her head-turning looks, and her recent visit to Nobu Malibu was certainly no exception. The Australian model enjoyed a meal at the hotspot earlier this week with a few family members. Her husband Kanye West’s kids even tagged along, looking excited for the family outing.
As for what Censori wore, she stunned in a tiny champagne-colored dress. She complemented the dress with sheer tights and a pair of strappy heels. While her look was certainly enough to draw attention, she was significantly more covered up for the wholesome dinner than usual. She’s been known to break a dress code or two with her barely there ensembles, though her more demure fit was equally impressive.
This isn’t the first time this month Censori has been spotted enjoying some time with her family, however. Last weekend, she and her sisters cheered Ye on at his Vultures 2 listening party in Utah. One of her sisters, Angelina, even shared some fun clips from the evening on social media. Ye could be seen performing “Runaway” at the show, which also featured his kids.
There have been various reports over the past few months that Censori’s family members are worried about her relationship with Ye. While it remains unclear exactly how they feel about it, they at least appear to be on good terms with both him and his kids. What do you think of Bianca Censori’s latest look? Are you a fan or not?
