A Model Couldn’t Walk in Kanye West’s Shoes, so She Wore Rihanna’s Fur Slides Instead
Amina Blue is apparently the Kardashian-Jenner-West group’s most-favored model. The diminutive New Yorker, who is of German and Pakistani descent, recently appeared in the music video for “1 of 1,” by Kylie Jenner’s boyfriend, Tyga, and made her New York Fashion Week debut in February 2015 during Kanye West’s Yeezy Season 1 collection. And seemingly because of the 23-year-old’s revered status within the reality TV family, Blue beat out hundreds of her peers who showed up for the rapper’s open casting call to win a spot on the Yeezy Season 4 roster. But the question is: Will she be back for Season 5?
While walking the outdoor runway on New York’s Roosevelt Island, the 5′ 1″ star was seen wobbling along. Then, apparently because she just couldn’t handle the shoes she was wearing anymore, she took them off in the middle of the procession and carried them the rest of the way.

Then, during the final walk, Blue was seen wearing fur-trimmed slides from Rihanna’s Fenty x Puma line, which seems to be an obvious conflict of interest, considering that Adidas, which is a partner of the Yeezy brand, is one of its biggest competitors.
