Exclusive Photos from Kanye West Yeezy 3 Fashion show and album launch

Facing the music: Kanye, who was wearing a long-sleeved tee printed with the words 'I feel like Pablo', started the show with a song called Ultralight Bling 

The self proclaimed god Kanye West debuted his latest Yeezy collection to an A-list crowd at New York City's Madison Square Garde. But unlike in previous fashion shows, It made this one a gangster time of show/concert...inviting thousand of fans and close industry pals and his family... it was pretty cool tho. See photos after the cut


Fan club: Kanye's in-laws already knew all the words to his songs and sang and danced along. (L-R) Kourtney, Kendall, Lamar, Khloe, Kylie, North and Kim

A newly-blonde Kim Kardashian, supermodel Karlie Kloss, and fellow fashion rebel Jaden Smith were treated to some bold colors from the rapper-turned-designer.
For Season Three, Kanye injected a few bright hues into his go-to neutral palette, jazzing up shades of nude, brown, and black with — gasp — red, yellow, and blue. 
But the show was still quite unlike anything anyone had ever seen before, starting with the out-of-the-ordinary invites and a larger-than-life venue, and finishing with supermodel Naomi Campbell hitting the stage.



Surprise! Naomi Campbell wowed the crowds when she made unexpected - yet very well received - appearance on the catwalk

The ladies: For the women, Kanye returned to his leggings and bodysuits of past seasons, but also added puffer coats and hints of color



The stage and surrounding areas were packed, making it difficult to see the details of the clothing






Meanwhile, a healthy-looking Lamar Odom was escorted to his seat by Kanye himself, and Jay Z, 50 Cent, A$AP Rocky, Tyga, Austin Mahone, L'il Kim, DJ Cassidy and Carine Roitfeld also turned up for the event.
Will Smith's son Jaden once again turned up with his girlfriend Sarah Snyder in tow, with the happy couple both donning Yeezy footwear. 
Jaden, 17, wore an almost entirely black outfit, and carried a khaki backpack, and a large bottle of Poland Spring water.



The family that dresses together... Caitlyn Jenner and daughter Kendall donned matching ensembles for the show, with both women opting for a distressed cream sweater dress
