Ater being postponed due to the Queen’s unexpected death, Burberry’s SS23 show went ahead this afternoon with a gaggle of A-listers in attendance.

Despite the rescheduled date clashing with the end of Milan fashion week, there was a strong turn out from the global fashion set.

Most notably, Kanye West jetted into London to sit on the FROW alongside the likes of Vogue Editor-in-Cheifs Anna Wintour and Edward Enninful.

Thigh-high boots were a favourite with attendees like Maya Jama and Winnie Harlow this year, but it was another set of, um, attention-grabbing footwear that actually ended up stealing the show. Enter: West’s diamante flip flops.

The Yeezy founder, who is largely regarded as a visionary fashion designer, sported a questionable pair of jewel-encrusted sandals and black socks to the presentation. Paired with a leather co-ord and hoodie, the internet is currently unsure whether the rapper turned entrepreneur is trolling us or setting the next big trend of the year.

After the show, West was seen catching up with the supermodels Bella Hadid, Irina Shayk and Naomi Campbell, sharing video clips of them strutting down the runway with his 17 million followers.

He’s yet to post a shot of his dazzling new flip flops and the jury’s out over whether he’s saving them for his next footwear drop or whether he just didn’t want to blind us.
