You may remember the whole hubbub around Kanye West wearing a silk shirt from Céline’s Spring 2011 Womenswear Collection to perform at Coachella.
Well, Jessica Simpson was papped leaving Balthazar restaurant in Soho wearing a green blouse from the same collection.
While Jessica went for a 70′s vibe in cute bell bottoms and oversized shades, Kanye kept his look flashy, leaving the shirt largely unbuttoned and accenting it with jeans and lots of layered necklaces and bangles.
The Spring 2011 shirts have an ethnic print and a loose fit.
I personally think the shirts look unisex. Why can’t both men and women wear them?
Who Wore it Better?

I think Kanye looks better…just because he went against the rules for it being intended for a female. But Jess still looks cute
May 23, 2011 12:25 pm
Kanye def rocked it better. The blouse is unisex but JS should’ve work skinny jeans with it. She has too much flare and baggyness going on.
May 23, 2011 12:31 pm
Yeah Kanye rock’d it better. It looks sloppy on JS.
May 23, 2011 12:35 pm
Kanye did it better. And it wore it African-style although he probably didn’t intend to.

I only like the way West accessorized it which Jessica could have done. That’s all but I kind of like the Boho chicness Jessica was trying to go with. But the shirt on Jessica does look bigger on her. She could have sized down??!!??

I am sorry I just cant get with seeing a man’s chest-ies all out like that. No sir! If we aint at the beach cover it up
May 23, 2011 12:50 pm
Its a home run for Kanye, he totally KILLED IT
May 23, 2011 12:57 pm
kanye…I am laughing because although I knew there was hubbub – I thought it was cuz it looked like a woman’s blouse…not because it was a woman’s blouse. Score for the “Blouses” – in my david chappelle/prince voice.

Seeing it on the runway, I can’t quite say that Mr. West rocked it. However, I like what he did with it better than Ms. Simpson’s ensemble.
May 23, 2011 1:35 pm
Yeezy baby!
May 23, 2011 1:45 pm
Def Kanye.
May 23, 2011 2:15 pm
Kanye did. It has a 70s dashiki vibe
May 23, 2011 2:18 pm
Thumbs up to our boy yeezy who can still look fly in woman’s clothes!
Jessica simpson,…i won’t like to be you…..
May 23, 2011 2:24 pm
I really think this shirt looks more better on men, if someone told me this was a lady’s shirt I would have thought they were lying..lol I don’t see it figure flattering on any woman but Kanye pulls it off
May 23, 2011 2:28 pm
Kanye rocked it all day. Did you see him at AMFA gala in the Cannes he look great beyond great.
May 23, 2011 2:47 pm
Gotta love Kanye, that man that man ;)
May 23, 2011 3:03 pm
They both rocked it! Loves Jessica’s look from head to toe and Kanye made it work for him.
May 23, 2011 4:05 pm
love jessica simpson when she rocks a 70s inspired style!! not feeling kanyes’s manboobs…
May 23, 2011 4:30 pm
Kanye West wore it better. It doesn’t look good on Jessica.
May 23, 2011 7:47 pm
Kanye, but he had no business wearing that blouse smh
May 23, 2011 8:38 pm
This is one of the least flattering blouses I have seen in a while. I don’t think either of them rocked it better than the other.
May 23, 2011 10:18 pm
Kayne rocked it better, btw where can i get this? *googles*
May 23, 2011 11:35 pm
kanye because the shirt looks way too big and baggy on jessica.
May 24, 2011 2:36 am
YEEZY!!!!!!!!! He tailored it to fit his personality and all. I was actually impressed when I found out it was supposed to be a woman’s silk shirt.
May 24, 2011 8:48 am
This shirt does remind me of a shirt I wore back in middle school. I really can’t pick and I would have to say both.
May 24, 2011 9:51 am
I love Kanyeeze but, I jus can’t deal w/ that chest situation… nothing wrong w/ a man who likes fashion but leave it for the Ladies to try and show out. And I am feeling Jessica’s style w/ the ripped Jeans… Go Jess!!!
May 24, 2011 10:01 am
I like the way Jessica rocked it. I agree with the person above that said she should have accessorized it a bit. I’m definitely feeling her whole look over Kanye’s.
May 25, 2011 7:25 pm
He is such a QUEEN
May 26, 2011 8:10 am
Kanyeeee . Agrred that JS should’ve worn skinnies. The flare leg is too much, since the shirt is super flowy.
May 26, 2011 1:59 pm
Kanye did it best, his outfit is sooooooo Chicago! I didn’t know this top was for women. But I loved it when I first saw it.
May 26, 2011 3:08 pm
haha… Kanye
