I've seen worse designs from very successful designers. Personally, I'm not sure I would like any dude of mine wearing some of the styles Westbrook chooses, but with that said we all only have one life and it's just clothes on your back. Why not have fun even if it does look a tad bit silly or gender bending. I guess in the big scheme of things what's really important is if one has an honest loving heart. Who cares what people think about your clothes.
I get so pissed when I see everyone shit talk russes fashion. He IS fashion. People call him faggot and queer but they don't know anything about pushing boundaries. Russell pushes boundaries and that's what makes him a fashion Icon.
This guy's gonna wear a dress to the game eventually.
