South African celebrity stylist Phupho Gumede has tongues wagging on the internet for the recent and revealing outfit that he wore during Paris Fashion Week.

Paris Fashion Week is all about showcasing your best looks ever and unleashing your inner fashionista, and Gumede certainly pulled out all the stops during the prestigious fashion events throughout the entire week.

Gumede, who is popularly known for his impeccable style and stunning outfits, took to Instagram and shared an outfit he wore to attend the Corpeni fashion show.

The award-winning stylist wore a denim jacket with matching pants. The back of the pants is the showstopper of the outfit as they feature a cut design shaped in a heart and reveal his butt.

Since he is in Paris, the revealing design features the Eiffel Tower jewellery.

Gumede captioned his post: “On Arrival at the#Corpeni #PFW show in custom @mayhemcoutureboutique.”

While he certainly enjoyed the look as he stunningly posed for the cameras, the internet, however, is unimpressed with this design since it is too revealing.

“I’m sorry, but this has to be one of the most nastiest thing I’ve seen today, nothing is iconic bout this,” @symphaniengelbrecht commented.

“Eish stop lying guys… ALL CELEBRITIES saying cool, fire, cool kae??? (cool where???) BOTSANANG NNETE HLE (be honest with each other), we love Phupho but this Nahhh,” @mmasenelo wrote.

While @im_ladyo added: “We have almost reached our final destination because why walk around with your entire bum out?”

While Gumede’s outfit might not be everyone’s cup of tea, he has joined a list of celebrities who have stepped out in a bold and daring look.

Many celebrities have opted to wear risqué outfits at events, including Rihanna, Beyoncé, and Kendall Jenner, for example, who have all appeared on the red carpet in sheer dresses.

Despite the mixed reactions that they received from the public, the sheer dresses later became a trend and were normalised in the fashion world.

In addition, very short and skimpy skirts also became a controversial choice of clothing in the past; however, now, it is normalised and people wear these skirts everywhere.
