Amber Rose has opened up about the influence Kanye West wields over the fashion choices of his partners, including his current wife, Bianca Censori. In a recent appearance on Shannon Sharpe’s podcast, “Club Shay Shay,” Rose discussed her personal experiences with West’s impact on her style and that of his former wife, Kim Kardashian.
Rose asserted that West is “for sure dressing” Censori in provocative clothing, a pattern she claims he established during their relationship and with Kardashian. “It’s just who he is,” Rose remarked, drawing parallels between her own experiences and those of Kardashian, who has previously spoken about how West influenced her fashion decisions.
According to Rose, West’s preference for eye-catching outfits stems from a desire to attract attention not just for himself, but for his partners as well. “He wants other men to want his woman,” she explained, suggesting that West enjoys showcasing his significant others in a way that ensures they are the center of attention. “He wants everybody to see that when you walk in a room, his girlfriend or wife is the most desirable.”
Reflecting on her own fashion journey, Rose mentioned her initial acceptance of West’s influence on her wardrobe. “I was young, and he was buying me this stuff. I do look pretty and cool,” she said. However, she later rebelled against his style, opting for more casual attire, including baggy jeans and oversized jackets. She humorously recalled raiding West’s closet when he was not home, indicating her desire to break free from the provocative looks he preferred.
A memorable moment for Rose came during a trip to Paris, where she wore a revealing dress chosen by West. She recalled feeling distressed about the outfit, saying, “I cried and argued with him. I don’t want to wear this.” West, known for his confident approach to fashion, defended his choices by declaring, “You don’t understand, it’s fashion. I’m a genius.”
In a recent social media post, West acknowledged his influence over Censori’s wardrobe decisions, particularly during her controversial appearance at the Grammys. He clarified that while he does not force her to wear anything, he admits that she wouldn’t have been able to make those choices without his approval.
The candid revelations from Rose highlight the complex dynamics of influence and personal expression in relationships, particularly in the high-stakes world of celebrity fashion. As West continues to shape the style narratives of those close to him, the conversation around his impact remains a point of intrigue within the entertainment industry.
