WHILE FASHION FOLLOWERS FROM WERE LOVING ALL THE SHOWS AT PARIS FASHION WEEK, THERE WAS ONE GUY WHO WAS NOT HAPPY. AT. ALL… MITCH WINEHOUSE.
DESIGNER JEAN PAUL GAULTIER UNVEILED WHAT HE CALLED A CATWALK “TRIBUTE” TO AMY WINEHOUSE ON WEDNESDAY, AND HER FATHER CALLED THE COLLECTION “DEVASTATING AND INSENSITIVE.”
MODELS WORE PENCIL SKIRTS AND CORSET DRESSES AND SPORTED AMY’S SIGNATURE BEEHIVE HAIRDO AND HEAVY-BLACK EYELINER AS THEY WALKED THE RUNWAY TO AMY’S MUSIC…
AND AS SOON AS MITCH HEARD ABOUT IT, HE TWEETED, “We don’t support the Jean Paul Gaultier collection. It’s in bad taste.”
LATER HE TOLD LONDON’S THE SUN, “We’re still grieving for her loss, and we’ve had a difficult week with the six month anniversary of Amy’s death. To see her image lifted wholesale to sell clothes was a wrench we were not expecting or consulted on.”
BUT GAULTIER IS STANDING BY HIS COLLECTION. AFTER THE SHOW HE SAID TOLD REPORTERS, “She was an icon of fashion and truly, the sense of how she mixed the clothes — it was great. It is very joyous.”
SO DO YOU THINK THE DESIGNER’S AMY WINEHOUSE COLLECTION WAS “INSPIRED” OR “INSENSITIVE.” LET US KNOW ON FACEBOOK. FOR CELEBTV, I’M KELLI ZINK.

It’s been one month since Amy Winehouse was found dead in her London home, and toxicology reports now show the singer was not under the influence of any illegal drugs at the time of her death.
“Toxicology results returned to the Winehouse family by authorities have confirmed that there were no illegal substances in Amy’s system at the time of her death,” the family said in a statement.
“Results indicate that alcohol was present but it cannot be determined as yet if it played a role in her death.”
“The family would like to thank the police and coroner for their continuing thorough investigations and for keeping them informed throughout the process. They await the outcome of the inquest in October.”
The Grammy-winning pop singer had a history of drug and alcohol abuse, although the family believes it is possible she died from sudden alcohol withdrawal.
