Internet trolls 'sustainable queen' Kourtney Kardashian for promoting scandal-hit fashion brand Boohoo
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kourtney Kardashian recently posted a photograph of herself sporting merchandise designed by fast fashion brand Boohoo.
In the photo, Kardashian flaunted a trench coat along with black boots and netted stockings.
However, the internet almost instantly slammed Kardashian's choice of clothes, questioning her supposedly 'vegan' lifestyle in connection with her Boohoo collaboration.
This comes after Boohoo was criticized in the past for allegedly rolling out unsustainable products that damage the environment and reflect the company's policy of 'greenwashing'.
