Nicki has been inundated with gifts for her newborn and earlier this week showed off the array of presents that had been sent by Yeezy and Dolce & Gabbana. There is every chance that this boy could be the most stylish baby in town with the boots, trainers and slip ons that have been sent by Kanye West's footwear brand. This was coupled with Dolce & Gabbana providing some sweet animal print onesies and vests. Nicki thanked the companies, writing: "What a lucky little infant... so thoughtful of you guys."
