Rick Owens is a very creative individual in the fashion world who created his own lane and has a lot of really cool clothing. Kanye is a dikkrider who wants these fashion guys to give him a handout without putting any work in.
In his world, Rick Owens is considered one of the best designers on the planet. In his world, Kanye west is considered one of the best artists on the planet.
This would be like if Rick Owens interned for a few months at Def Jam and then screamed on stage at a fashion show begging for Kanye to give him a major label deal. Kanye hasn't done his time from the ground up. Ok, he made a shoe and leveraged a deal with a company he probably barely profits from, but sketching up a shoe that sold on hype is a hundred times different then starting a profitable line like these dudes do.
It's incredibly risky and not profitable in the early goings. I don't think Kanye has the talent to be that big n/h in the fashion world. The only thing he has going for him is hype.
His ambition is admirable, but he's delusional.
