Word on the street (read: TMZ and W magazine) is that your favorite new megachurch-leading millionaire, Kanye West, has filed to trademark โ€œSunday Serviceโ€-branded apparel, including โ€œclothing, dresses, footwear, headwear, jackets loungewear, scarves, shirts, socks and clothing tops,โ€ says TMZ.

If youโ€™re wondering what such a line of apparel might look like, look no further than the Yeezy-heavy, plenty-of-room-for-the Holy Ghost wardrobes of West and his Sunday Service choir at this yearโ€™s Coachella. What you might consider your cleaning day clothes were purportedly a tease for a Yahweh-themed Yeezy collection, with performance merch on sale for the low, low tithes of $50-$225โ€”and that mess was apparently in high demand, so West clearly knows his congregation.

Bless his heart...and his bank account.

Granted, I grew up with a very different set of criterion for โ€œchurch clothes,โ€ but would Jesus really walk for this? Is this truly what you want to be caught wearing on Judgment Day? I suppose you can just call me โ€œDoubting Thomas,โ€ but looking at the oversized, monochromatic, read-to-wade-in-the-water, dyed-with-Kool-Aid-church wine-ass scrubs pictured above, I remain dubious that fashion is โ€˜Yeโ€™s ministry. Frankly, I donโ€™t see why he doesnโ€™t just call his prospective line of merch the โ€œKult Kollection,โ€ because it makes me wish he would let my people go.

But what do I know? Iโ€™m just a former Catholic schoolgirl baptized in the waters of Lake Minnetonka (no, really)-turned-unrepentant heathen who writes about style for a living. *crosses self * Go with God, Kanye.
