Oh dear.
It seems not everyone was delighted with the Gaultier show this week in which models were dressed like Amy Winehouse. Her father, Mitch has spoken about how he felt the show was too soon and it was disrespectful.
"To see her image lifted wholesale to sell clothes was a wrench we were not expecting or consulted on.”
“We’re proud of her influence on fashion but find black veils on models,
smoking cigarettes with a barbershop quartet singing her music in bad
taste.
“It portrays a view of Amy when she was not at her best, and glamorises
some of the more upsetting times in her life. That’s upsetting for her
family.”
Mind you Gaultier responded with: “To me the scandal is that no fashion magazine did an Amy Winehouse
cover. She was so exceptional in her style; how she held her body; the
way she dressed, mixing pieces from different decades.”
