Amber Rose's Feminist Outfit Slayed the VMA Red Carpet
Last night’s MTV Video Music Awards had plenty of well-dressed celebrities in attendance, but no one really quite made the social fashion statement that Amber Rose and her ferocious, on-point squad did.
Along with fellow queen and model-extraordinaire Blac Chyna, Amber wore a body suit covered in derogatory slurs that are often used to shame women, namely things like “bitch,” “whore,” “gold digger,” and “slut.”
They were accompanied by their two friends, who wore two black outfits covered in the antigay slur “faggot.”
Many people online are praising Amber and crew’s outrageous 'fits, because they are reclaiming usually offensive words and using them as a way to empower themselves, making for amazing feminist and pro-LGBT fashion statements.
Obviously, tons of people were fans.
\u201cIt's the folks that call Amber Rose every word that she's wearing tonight that are in "shock." & she took their power away, in one outfit.\u201d— deray (@deray) 1440982785

i honestly love Amber Rose and black Chyna for what they did. I hate slut shaming, usually by men AND women who do the same shit or worse
