Amy Winehouse's Father Slams Designer Jean Paul Gaultier For Fashion Tribute

Amy Winehoue's father has accused designer Jean Paul Gaultier of cashing in on his daughter's death.

 During Gaultier's spring/summer 2012 collection, the models wore beehive hair-dos, heavy eyeliner – and even cigarettes to resemble Winehouse.

Amy's track' Rehab' provided the backdrop for the show.

Speaking to The Sun, Mitch said: "The family was upset to see those pictures, they were a total shock.
"We're still grieving for her loss, and we've had a difficult week with the six-month anniversary of Amy's death.

To see her image lifted wholesale to sell clothes was a wrench we were not expecting or consulted on."

"We're proud of her influence on fashion but find black veils on models, smoking cigarettes with a barbershop quartet singing her music in bad taste.

It portrays a view of Amy when she was not at her best, and glamorises some of the more upsetting times in her life. That's upsetting for her family."

Meanwhile, a Amy Winehouse memorial tribute concert could be set to go ahead on a pay-per-view basis.

Her father, Mitch Winehouse, is reportedly in talks with a number of television companies about the possibility of making fans "pay a few quid" to watch the memorial concert.

The tribute concert is also said to have stars “ Florence And The Machine, Lily Allen, Jessie J and Mark Ronson linked to the gig.
