Can you believe Kanye West has been designing clothes for four whole seasons already? No, none of us can. And after the yesterday's fashion show fiasco, he should prooooobably just stop. Seriously, Yeezy. Just stop.

Unlike in previous years, the clothes themselves actually weren't the problem. Here's Kim Kardashian and her sisters Kendall and Kylie looking gorgeous in Kanye's designs. But flesh colored sports bras and $300 track pants couldn't save this well-dressed nightmare.

The show took place on the grounds of an abandoned smallpox hospital on Roosevelt Island in NYC, because nothing says "edgy" like smallpox. Yeezy shuttled his A-list guests in via bus, which everyone knows is every celeb's top choice of transportation. Apparently the guests were displeased by the lack of snacks or water offered to them on the bus which at first sounds kind of prissy, but when you factor in that it was upwards from 85 degrees, its more just a basic requirement for human life.
Overheard on the Yeezy Season 4 bus: "It feels like we're being kidnapped."

When guests arrived, they were greeted by the comforting sight of dozens of models lined up on the lawn like the Terracotta Warriors, clad in flesh colored leotards so heinous they looked like they'd been picked out of the lost-n-found after an Intro to Movement class at Tisch. The show was scheduled to begin at 3PM, but didn't get around to starting until a whole two hours later. Exhausted models began to collapse on the lawn from heat, and fashion editors had already started to trickle out before the show finally got underway.
Maybe this Yeezy still life/show is meta-commentary on fame and the Emperor's new clothes? pic.twitter.com/uN8Qqrqt2o

Watching editors leave #YeezySeason4 But I feel obligated to watch out for these models and see what else they have to go through.

Once things finally got moving, they went from bad to much, much worse. Literally not one single pair of Yeezy's boots were made for walking. Check out Amina Blue walking like a constipated penguin in front of her ex-BF Tyga and his new girl, Kylie, no less before getting so fed up, she actually kicks of the shoes and carries on:
Then there was this complete and total trooper, dressed more appropriately for driving a Zamboni than for New York in the summer, that just could not walk at all.
She was having a hard time in them heels.. that's definitely how I be #YeezySeason4 pic.twitter.com/hWWpfmFmZi

The youngest Jenner sister has already piped up on Twitter in defense of the wobbly-legged model:
@riseupkordei nothing?
I'm so proud of her. She didn't want to disappoint and she fuckin pulled through and tried her best. She's awesome
Kylie Jenner (@KylieJenner) September 7, 2016
You're right, Kylie! Props to this woman for giving it her all. That's fucking commitment. But maybe just maybe it's Yeezy's fault for designing heels so shoddy that they disintegrate after 90 minutes minutes of wear. When someone from the audience has to come up and help a model make it to the end of the runway, there is DEFINITELY something wrong.

Ultimately, Kanye the man who basically never, ever smiles walked out looking utterly overjoyed at the abomination he had just foisted upon the world:
I'll let Stella Bugbee, the editor of The Cut and a survivor of Yeezy Season 4, send us off with by saying what we're all thinking:
Honestly Adidas should be ashamed.
