The YouTuber is being roasted for his New York Fashion Week outfit, which included a pair of heels and a dress. Now, we know James loves to push the boundaries when it comes to fashion. Case in point, his Coachella outfits that always feature an assless chap situation. But for fashion week, James' lewk was a lot more tame.
James shared photos of himself on Twitter, wearing a buckled blazer dress, a $1,195 Off-White bag and white strappy stiletto heels. Let's be honest, he was serving.
However, some internet trolls couldn't help but bring their negativity to James' page, with one writing: "Sis, your big toe on the ground," alongside a zoomed in pic of James' toe making a bid for freedom.

Not one to back down, James clapped back at the troll's post, and wrote: "that’s because I am a man in heels lizz [sic]." WELL.
James Charles has taken a lot of jabs over his provocative clothing in the past and for wearing clothes traditionally meant for women. But in an interview with Seventeen in July 2019, James said clothing has no gender.

He said: "Clothing I feel like for me is subjective – clothing has no gender obviously and for me it’s just all about feeling confident and feeling body confident, too."
