Amy Winehouse's dad not happy with Jean Paul Gaultier's tribute collection
(CBS) Couture designer Jean Paul Gaultier didn't win everyone over with his latest Amy Winehouse-inspired collection that was presented at Paris Fashion Week.
The father of the late songstress told the U.K.'s The Sun that the French designer's show was in "bad taste."

"The family was upset to see those pictures," Mitch Winehouse said. "We're still grieving for her loss, and we've had a difficult week with the six-month anniversary of Amy's death.
"It portrays a view of Amy when she was not at her best, and glamorizes some of the more upsetting times in her life," he told the paper.
The models went down the runway smoking cigarettes and sporting Winehouse's famous bouffant, giving off a disheveled aesthetic.
Despite the criticism, Gaultier call his show a "tribute" to the singer. "She was an icon of fashion and truly, the sense of how she mixed the clothes - it was great," he said after the show on Wednesday. "It is very joyous."
