Young Thug made an instant impact on the Hip Hop scene with songs “Danny Glover” and “Stoner.” Thug has not only become known by his music, but also by his feminine attire.
Thug opened up on his choice of fashion during a recent interview with GQ Magazine.
Thug revealed he wears women’s clothing because they fit him better.
“…Women’s clothes are [slimmer] than men’s clothes,” he said. “The jeans I got on right now, they’re women’s jeans. But they fit how they’re supposed to fit. Like a rock star.”
He added, “The only thing I probably have in men’s is like briefs. T-shirts. Ninety percent of my clothes are women’s.”
Joanna “JoJo” Zarur is credited with putting together Young Thug’s controversial wardrobe. Thug has been blasted for wearing feminine clothing. Though Thug wears feminine attire, Zarur stresses that he’s not “gay.”
According the 23-year-old stylist, Thug thrives off of it.
“Sometimes he’ll do stuff on purpose that he knows will piss people off,” she told Pitchfork. “If people start talking sh*t about his nails being red, he’ll put crystals on the nails. Talk about his jeans, he’s like, ‘I want tighter jeans.’ He goes out of his way to make a sure people know he doesn’t care. He finds it funny cause at the end of the day, he’s setting a trend. He’ll look at Instagram and read the hater comments and laugh, and show his friends. He’s the perfect person for what he’s doing. I could not see anyone else doing it better, honestly.
