Kanye West slammed for selling new Yeezy Gap collection out of trash bags

Kanye West’s fans have more than just their panties in a bunch. The rapper-turned-fashion designer is getting slammed online for selling his latest clothing collection out of trash bags.

According to the eyewitness on twitter, “The sales associate said Ye got mad when he saw they had [his clothes] on hangers” because “this is how he wanted it.”

“They won’t help you find [your] size. You just have to just dig through everything.”

The image sparked major backlash, with several critics slamming West’s “fetish” with using homeless people as “fashion muses.”

“It’s everything that is wrong with billionaires. They no longer see the plight of people, they don’t see humans that are suffering, they see opportunities to be ‘edgy’ and profit from it…it’s disgusting.”

Others took issue with the collection itself, which features an array of bulky, dark gray sweatpants, sweatshirts and accessories that range in price from $40 (keychain) to $340 (T-cut parka).

Last week, the 45-year-old father of four explained that his “biggest inspiration for all design” was “the homeless.”
