He now designs some of the worst sneakers the community has ever seen and plagiarises classic skateboard artwork and passes them off as his own work at fashion shows.

More recently he has been criticised for his disgusting sneaker designs and plagiaristic tendencies.
Setting fashion trends
Scott dressed Britney Spears as a futuristic airline stewardess for her Toxic video. He is also the first fashion designer to dress the muppet diva Miss Piggy, who called him her favorite designer, as have Agyness Deyn, Katy Perry, and Lady Gaga. His designs have included one-legged pants, and fast food-inspired dresses. He has been dubbed the Jeff Koons of fashion for his references to Pop-culture icons, such as Mickey Mouse. As well as setting trends he also steals trends from 80's skateboard artwork by Jim Phillips used on legendary Santa Cruz skateboards.
Money makers
Karl Lagerfeld said in the newspaper Le Monde that Scott was the only designer who could ever succeed him at Chanel. Scott is known for humorous prints—splattering the essence of Fun and Fashion all over his clothes—and the carry-all bags he designs each season for the French luxury company Longchamp. The designer appeared on the cover of the English fashion magazine I-D in July 2007: the first designer to be featured there wearing clothes of his own design and shot as a self-portrait (with actress, model and muse Devon Aoki, whom he "discovered"). He also has appeared in the Larry Clark film Wasssup Rockers as parody of a fashion photographer, a performance that drew reviews praising his acting ability. Scott designed the now-defunct Manhattan night club Happy Valley. His photography has appeared on the covers of international fashion magazines such as I-D, Dazed & Confused, Purple magazine, and Les Inrockuptibles. His collection for the sportswear giant Adidas, a line called Jeremy Scott for Adidas, features apparel and footwear, including a winged high-top sneaker. The shoe has a wing extending from it, which became an iconic instant bestseller for Adidas. Scott has also created sneakers with teddy bears sprouting from the tongue as well as a pair with Mickey Mouse's face on the tongue. Also shoes with wings that were inspired by the Greek god Hermes. Working closely with the foundation for the late artist Keith Haring, Scott created a shoe and track suit bearing Haring's graphic art—a special project known as AdiColor, a collaborative venture with Adidas.
News sources that have interviewed Scott run the gamut from Full Frontal Fashion to CNN. Scott Has had Features in The New York Times, T Magazine The Herald Tribune, The Huffington Post, i-D Magazine, Dazed & Confused, NYLON, Purple Magazine, 10 Magazine, Numero, and Self Service.

Among anybody who possessed a brain however the trainers were ridiculed and still cause offence to this day.
