Bstroy's line of sweatshirts printed with the schools affected by gun violence, upset many on social media.
After clothing company Bstroy made sweatshirts displaying the names of schools targeted by mass shooters, it was shunned on social media. The designer now says the shirts are a commentary on gun violence.
This week, Bstroy designers Duey Catorze and Brick Owens posted images from the fashion show to Instagram, where their artistic vision was lost. Fred Guttenberg, whose 14-year-old daughter Jaime died in the Parkland, Fla., tragedy, tweeted, “Under what scenario could somebody think this was a good idea? This has me so upset. If any of my followers [know] anybody involved with this clothing line, please ask them to stop it immediately.”
Co-founder Catorze tells Yahoo Lifestyle in a statement, “We wanted to make reference to the victims with reverence. And tell a story that depicts them as heroes.”
