Yeezy is officially returning to the runway. Ye, the artist and designer formerly known as Kanye West, has announced that his fashion label will stage its next runway presentation in Los Angeles on November 4, marking its first major live fashion show in more than four years. Titled “Yeezy Season 01,” the presentation will take place at the brand’s newly opened flagship store, signaling another significant step in its efforts to rebuild its fashion business.
The announcement confirms earlier reports of Yeezy’s return to the runway and follows a gradual relaunch that has seen the label resume selling clothing and footwear through new retail channels. With its upcoming presentation, the brand is preparing to reintroduce itself to the fashion industry through a live showcase, this time operating independently of the major commercial partnerships that supported its previous expansion.

According to an official invitation distributed to members of the press, the Yeezy Season 01 runway show will take place on Wednesday, November 4, at 8 p.m. local time. The presentation is scheduled for Yeezy Flagship Droam 1, located at 4317 Beverly Boulevard in Los Angeles, California.
The event will also celebrate the opening of the brand’s new brick-and-mortar retail location, bringing its runway and retail activities together. The decision to host the presentation at its own flagship marks a departure from the larger, unconventional venues associated with some of Yeezy’s previous fashion shows.
The November 4 event will be Ye’s first major runway presentation since October 2022, when he staged Yeezy Season 9 in Paris. That collection attracted widespread controversy after models appeared wearing shirts bearing the words “White Lives Matter,” followed by a series of antisemitic remarks from the designer.
The Show Marks a New Chapter After Adidas Partnership
The upcoming Yeezy Season 01 presentation comes under significantly different circumstances from the label’s earlier runway years. In October 2022, Adidas terminated its lucrative partnership with Ye following his antisemitic statements, bringing an end to one of the most commercially successful collaborations between a musician and a sportswear company.
The fallout also affected Yeezy’s relationships with other major businesses. Gap and Balenciaga were among the companies that distanced themselves from the designer during the period of controversy.
Ye has since publicly addressed his previous remarks. In January 2026, he published a full-page open letter in The Wall Street Journal, in which he disavowed antisemitism and apologized to the Black and Jewish communities.
The new runway announcement does not erase the circumstances surrounding the brand’s earlier setbacks, but it shows Ye’s intention to continue developing Yeezy as an independent fashion label.

The runway comeback follows a soft relaunch of the Yeezy brand earlier this year. The label returned to its official online store with a selection of essential wardrobe basics, taking a more direct-to-consumer approach to selling its clothing.
Its footwear business has also started finding new retail opportunities. In August 2026, JD Sports began carrying independent Yeezy footwear through its physical stores and online platform, giving the brand access to a major retail distribution network outside its former Adidas arrangement.
The opening of Yeezy Flagship Droam 1 adds another dimension to that rebuilding process. Rather than relying exclusively on online sales and external retail partners, the Los Angeles location gives the label a physical space through which to present and sell its products.
What to Expect From Yeezy Season 01
While the brand has confirmed the date, location, and time of its upcoming runway presentation, further details about the collection have not been announced. Yeezy has yet to disclose the number of looks, participating models, footwear releases, or the creative direction behind the show.
The title, however, is notable. Yeezy’s original runway collection debuted in 2015, with subsequent presentations progressing through numbered seasons until Season 9 in 2022. Returning with the name Yeezy Season 01 suggests a fresh starting point for the label as it begins another phase of its fashion operations.
The brand’s earlier collections helped establish its recognizable design language, including oversized silhouettes, muted color palettes, utilitarian influences, and minimalist footwear. Whether the November presentation revisits those familiar elements or introduces a different aesthetic remains to be seen.
For now, the Yeezy Season 01 runway show is confirmed for November 4 at the label’s Los Angeles flagship. The presentation will give the first substantial look at Ye’s latest fashion direction since his departure from the traditional fashion circuit, while providing a clearer picture of what the next chapter of Yeezy might look like.
