'My wife is the face of change in fashion' Kanye West compares Kim to Marie Antoinette, who was beheaded for treason in France.

Kanye West has bizarrely compared his wife, Kim Kardashian, to the overthrown Queen of France, Marie Antoinette, who was famously beheaded at age 37 in 1793 for high treason in France.

For a photoshoot for Hype Energy, Kim once dressed up as Marie Antoinette, who was nicknamed Madame Déficit during the French Revolution because the country's financial crisis was blamed on her splashing the cash.

 

Kanye clearly obsessed with his wife said;

'My wife is the face of the change [in] fashion, where designers who literally wouldn't let her sit in shows are now making entire collections based off of her shape,' 

'It's funny, for Kim to be photographed so much, [she] represents our modern day Marie Antoinette. She gets hair and makeup every day, not just for a photo shoot. Why? Because every day is a photo shoot.' the 39-year-old designer/rapper told Harper's BAZAAR in a new interview.

Returning the 'praise', the Keeping Up with the Kardashians stunner said her third husband was her 'best stylist.'

'I swear he sees everything a few steps ahead of anyone else,' Kim - who boasts 155.8M followers - gushed.

'Kanye is a big part of my fashion story and my fashion transformation. He's my best stylist. Every look I love is definitely something that he's had a hand in helping to style or put together.'

She continued: 'My friends and my sisters will say, "I've never met anyone like you two who will just sit in a closet for hours and try on clothes and cut things up and redesign them." We just love it, and we spend a lot of time on it. We do put a lot of effort into the looks and trying to stay ahead of the game.'
