Kanye WestandCandice Swanepoelspent some time together at New York Fashion Week.
The Yeezy mogul, 45, and the supermodel, 33, were seen together Tuesday at a NYFW event for West’s new Yeezy Gap Shadz sunglasses.
The pair then left the event before arriving at a hotel early Wednesday morning together, according to TMZ.
The model is featured in the campaign for the new line of sunglasses which was shared to Yeezy’sInstagramaccount earlier this week.
In one image, which the model also shared on her Instagram account, Swanepoel is seen with her hair pulled back and her arms crossed over her bare chest. In another, her head appears shaved in a close up shot of the futuristic shades.
Last month,Kim Kardashian, who shares four children with West, shared photos of a photoshoot she had with daughtersChicago, 4, andNorth, 9, wearing West’sYeezySHDZ YR 3022.
Kardashian, 41, and West, who separated in early 2021 after seven years of marriage, also share sonsPsalm, 3, andSaint, 6.

“It was always a dream of mine to be at the Gap and to bring the best product possible,” West told CNBC’sClosing Bell. “Obviously there’s always struggles and back-and-forth when you’re trying to build something new and integrate teams.”
Although the partnership is terminated going forward, the letter allows Gap to continue selling existing YEEZY Gap products before ceasing to use the brand name. It also does not affect merchandise made through YEEZY’s collaboration with Balenciaga, which is also sold through Gap.
West previously issued Gap an ultimatum in a since-deleted video posted to Instagram last month, which accused the company of stealing his designs and cutting him out of the creative process.
“You have to really give me the position to be Ye and let me do what I’m thinking, or I have to do the thinking somewhere else,” he said, according toWSJ, also announcing his plans to “open YEEZY stores worldwide,” starting with Atlanta.
TheDondaartist warned Gap they were next on his list, following asimilar public feud with Adidas, which has also had a partnership with YEEZY for 10 years. Adidas did not previously respond toPEOPLE’s request for comment.
