Kendall and Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner admits Kanye West inspired her shoe line.

The 16-year-old star and her older sister Kendall have teamed up with Steve Madden to launch Madden Girl, and the brunette beauty insists the rapper's passion for fashion sparked her creativity.

Speaking of Kanye - who is engaged to her half-sister Kim Kardashian, she said: "He's really inspiring just watching him. He's been my roommate for a couple months now, so just watching him, he's so passionate about his stuff and he's very, very into it, so it's just awesome to see that.

"He's just really excited about it. He's always showing me his designs. He's such a creative guy. He's awesome and has a lot of talent so it's cool to see that. It's inspiring. It makes me wanna work harder."

The siblings - who also have their own clothing line - believe venturing into footwear was the best decision for their career.

Kendall, 18, tells E! news: "I think with our clothing line, we had so much fun doing that, so that led into the next step which was shoes."

Kylie added: "We grew up with Steve Madden and I remember buying my first pair of Steve Madden boots, and everyone in my school wore them. It's just such a great collaboration."
