Kanye was captured strolling around the Berlin airport, in Germany, in an all-black Balenciaga ensemble, a satchel purse resting across his body and the new gigantic Balenciaga crocs boots.

He added an easy to wear, off-white, alien-like mask that disguised his entire head, leaving only a dual opening for his eyes framed with dark sunglasses to peer through.

This is not the first time he would sport such a look. Over the weekend, it appeared that he had an occasion in Venice, Italy.

It was the wedding of two famous people, with the crème de la crème in attendance. The couple was D’ESTRËE creator Geraldine Guiotte and Alexander Arnault, who worked at Tiffany & Co. as the EVP.

West, who was scheduled to perform, donned a similar outfit as his most recent look. However, he opted for a bulky black mask covering only his face instead of the full lighter-colored mask.

He was not the only celebrity in attendance. His longtime “frenemy” Jay-Z graced the event with his gorgeous superstar wife, Beyoncé. This led to gossip that the rappers might have buried the hatchet.

CONTROVERSIES OVER FASHION FOLLOWING THE SPLIT

West’s recent mask fashion began after an apparent victory scored by his estranged wife, Kim Kardashian. The pair were married for six years, and they share four adorable kids, but towards the end of last year, rumor had it that their union was headed to the rocks.

In February, the Reality TV Show Star, Socialite, Aspiring Lawyer, and Fashion Maven Kim Kardashian slammed her husband with divorce papers.

The latest development about the Kardashian-West divorce saga is that the mother of four won possession of their sixty million dollars LA mansion.

Kardashian and her kids have been residents in the home since February. It was primarily renovated by the rapper who worked in sync with the renowned architect Axel Vervoodt.

After the win, Kardashian paid the father of four the sum of twenty million dollars. The amount estimates the original value before revamping the Hidden Hills Estate, which contains two kitchens, a basketball court, an exotic swimming pool, and a detached gym.

FANS’ EXPRESSIONS

At the Venice wedding, many danced to the rapper’s musical tunes. West decided to bless the wedding guests with his hit tracks “Runaway” and “Flashing Lights.”

However, his choice of outfit remained a shock to some fans who aired their opinions. The witnesses admitted that the rapper found it troubling to keep his alien mask in place while performing.

THE EXES THAT STICK TOGETHER

After their house became Kardashian’s property, fans could comprehend that there was no going back on the divorce for one of the world’s best celebrity couples.

The party was for the rapper’s tenth studio album, named after his deceased mother, Donda. Other celebrities like DaBaby and about forty thousand fans attended the event at the Soldier Field Stadium.
