Vogue called his spring 2000 ready-to-wear show "a witty reply to all his detractors, who had accused him in the past of producing outlandish clothing that no one would wear."[2]

Adidas collection

In June 2008, Adidas launched a collaboration collection of footwear and apparel by Scott.[3] The wing high tops and teddy bear shoes are popular with hip hop stars as well as with the general fashion public.[4] The first collaboration between Scott and Adidas was in 2002 for the "!Signed" project, for which Scott created a silk jacquard with a motif of money scattered around with his own likeness replacing that of George Washington. The design was on the Adidas classic high top model, the Forum, which has a velcro strap around the ankle. The shoe was handmade in the Adidas factory in Scheinfeld, Germany. There were only 100 pairs made, 50 went to Scott and 50 went to Adidas followed by Adicolor Collab with Adidas + Keith Haring.[5][clarification needed]Jeremy Scott, Nicki Minaj, Sky Ferreira and 2NE 1 star in Adidas campaign, the diverse group is labeled "tastemakers ."[6] Backup dancers for Madonna in the Super Bowl halftime show wore Jeremy Scott track suits for Adidas Originals.[7] Jeremy Scott debuts first fragrance for Adidas fragrane for Adidas on Feb 1,2015 in a glass replica of Scott's iconic Adidas winged sneakers.

Controversy

In June 2012, Adidas decided that a pair of sneakers designed by Scott called the JS Roundhouse Mids would not be sold after the shoes were criticised for their apparent resemblance to shackles and allusion to slavery.[14] Scott denied that the shoes had anything to do with slavery, stating it was a reference to the children's toy My Pet Monster.[15]
