Kim Kardashian West has hinted at an upcoming collaboration between her husband Kanye West and Louis Vuitton.

Yesterday afternoon the duo were spotted leaving Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris.

This morning Kardashian West added to speculation with an Instagram picture of the pair outside the offices with the caption:

"Stay tuned... #fondationlouisvuitton #kanyewest"

In 2013 West famously fell out with Louis Vuitton, even calling for his fans to boycott the label after being reportedly snubbed by the brand's Vice President.

"What happened was while I was out in Paris I wanted to meet with the head of Louis Vuitton, he said I don't understand why we need to meet with you" he said speaking on 92.3 NOW Radio.

"I said, 'let me explain to you why you need to meet with me. Everybody in New York City right now don't buy any Louis Vuitton until after January. Now do you want to meet with me? Now do you want to meet with me?' Influence. They think that I don't realise my power."

West paid another visit to the Louis Vuitton headquarters earlier this week when he attended an event celebrating the designers shortlisted for LVMH's prize for young designers.

No other details on a possible collaboration between the iconic French brand and West have been revealed, watch this space.
