Kanye West flashes his titanium teeth while wife Bianca Censori appears to go topless under a raincoat – as rapper wears Balenciaga a day after ex Kim Kardashian endorsed controversial brand

Kanye West rocked Balenciaga just one day after his ex-wife Kim Kardashian was named brand ambassador for the controversial fashion house.

The rapper, 46, donned a taupe Balenciaga raincoat as he headed to the Century City Mall, followed by lunch at Sunset Towers with his wife Bianca Censori on Monday — while also getting his new set of titanium teeth done.

The couple enjoyed a brief reprieve from the stormy weather as they pulled into a parking lot, where they were seen holding hands as they walked along the sidewalk.

Bianca, 29, still managed to raise eyebrows despite being dressed from head to toe in some rather unflattering rain gear.

The star appeared to be topless, wearing very little under her sheer poncho.

It looked like she was wearing her underwear, along with a pair of statement leather boots.

Her complexion looked beautiful with a touch of eye makeup and a chic, slicked back hairstyle.

Kanye, on the other hand, paired his jacket with clunky black boots. His new titanium teeth were visible as he smiled with his wife.

The outing comes just one day after Kanye’s ex-wife Kim was announced as the new brand ambassador for Balenciaga.

Kanye previously worked with the brand, but they dropped him in 2022 following his anti-Semitic rants and several problematic statements.

Kim was famously introduced to Balenciaga Creative Director Demna Gvasalia by Kanye, with the couple’s daughters also wearing the brand, after they were spotted carrying bags from the four-figure brand.

She acknowledged the role her ex-husband had played in the relationship in December 2021 when she spoke at the People’s Choice Awards, where she accepted an award for fashion.

“To Kanye for really introducing me to the fashion world,” she said. ‘I fell in love with fashion and I’m so inspired by so many people. But again, this is like a dream that I wake up and wear these amazing clothes, try new things and take a risk. I’m so humbled.’

At the time, Fashion described it as “the pinnacle of Kardashian’s Balenciaga moment.”

Last year, Balenciaga sparked outrage with an ad that showed children posing next to various BDSM-themed items.

Kim, who previously declined to cut ties with the brand but said she was “shocked and disgusted” by the ad, posted a statement on Monday announcing her partnership with the label led by creative director Demna Gvasalia.

The statement read: “Balenciaga designs have been part of my many looks – and some of my most iconic fashion moments – for a number of years.

‘This historic fashion house embraces modernity, craftsmanship and takes an innovative approach to design under Demna.

‘For me, this long-term relationship is based on mutual trust and the commitment to do what is right. I’m excited about this next chapter for the brand and becoming their ambassador.”

Kardashian previously starred in Balenciaga campaigns, walked in their show and accompanied Demna to the 2021 Met Gala.

In November 2022, the fashion house came under fire after releasing an ad in which children posed next to various BDSM-themed items.

Kim initially faced backlash for refusing to cut ties with the brand and praised its handling of the scandal, despite claiming to be ‘shocked’ and ‘disgusted’ by the images.

Kardashian is often seen in Balenciaga at major events and has featured in several of the brand’s campaigns in the past, such as Paris Fashion Week

She has since made her loyalty clear by taking part in an ad for Balenciaga’s upcoming summer 2024 collection.

“I have been quiet in recent days, not because I am not shocked and outraged by Balenciaga’s recent campaigns, but because I wanted the opportunity to speak to their team to understand for myself how this could have happened,” said the spokesman. The Los Angeles-born celebrity said this in a statement on her Instagram page at the time of the scandal.

She continues: ‘As a mother of four children, I am shocked by these disturbing images. The safety of children must be respected with the highest regard and anything that goes against this must have no place in our society.”

Kim initially released a statement on her Instagram Stories account in November 2022

In an additional post, this time on both Twitter and Instagram, Kardashian said she was reconsidering her relationship with the fashion brand.

She then reissued the statement, changing some of the wording to stronger language, adding, “any attempt to normalize child abuse of any kind should have no place in our society – period.”

On balance, however, Kardashian said she was comfortable with the way the company responded to the scandal.

“I appreciate Balenciaga’s removal from the campaigns and apology. “By speaking to them, I believe they understand the seriousness of the issue and will take the necessary steps to ensure this never happens again.”

In an additional post on both Instagram and Twitter, Kardashian said she was reconsidering her relationship with the fashion brand but had not made many final decisions yet.

‘Regarding my future at Balenciaga, I am currently re-evaluating my relationship with the brand, basing it on their willingness to accept responsibility for something that should never have happened – and the actions I expect them to take to protect children.’
