Justin Bieber's Drew House clothing line has arrived and people are really dragging it

Yay! Just what we needed, another celebrity fashion line…
It wasn't enough for Justin Bieber to have a hugely successful singing career, no, the "What Do You Mean?" singer has now entered the fashion world – but people have some thoughts.
Whilst we've been waiting for Justin's next album (where the hell is it!?), he's been teasing us with glimpses of his new fashion venture. We've seen him knocking around Los Angeles for months, running errands and promoting his clothing on social media and it's finally landed. Introducing: Drew House.
Just in case you didn't know, Justin's middle name is Drew and we guess he lives in a house? So yeah, Drew House. The clothing is all ethically made in Los Angeles, California, and according to Drew House's website their message is simple:
"A place where you can be yourself. blah blah blah...," it reads. "wear like you don't care. come chill. k. bye."
Right…
Justin has clearly drawn influence from skaters, the lookbook seems like it was shot in someone's suburban back garden and the clothes are all pretty baggy in natural hues. Some even have an emoji smiley face on them or Drew, written in bold lettering. The price ranges from $48 for a t-shirt to an expensive $148 for a corduroy shirt or pair of trousers. You can even snap up a pair of smiley face slippers – which are already out of stock – for as little as $5.99.
It doesn't stop there, though, the product descriptions all contain some sort of random fact for some reason. Case in point, did you know all swans in England belong to the Queen? Who knew online shopping could be so educational.
However, the release of Justin's design debut hasn't been without its criticisms. First of all, why is it SO expensive!?

While we're here, it's worth mentioning that Justin's new collection looks a lot like Kanye West's Yeezy Season 3 line…
what kind of Walmart yeezy nonsense was that??
— oh imma do that anyway cause thats how i am (@hisIatingirI) January 30, 2019
The Purpose Tour merch looked WAY better than this House of Drew line, it basically looks like the hippie version of Kanye’s Yeezy line just without the holes and made of corduroy, then he has the nerve to charge over $100 for it like no sir 💀

Drew House clothing line is uglier than the Yeezy collection and that’s saying something

Despite the backlash, we have no doubt people will be clambering to buy these pieces. Lots of pieces have already sold out, I mean, it's Justin Bieber's clothing. We just hope you have your cash ready…
