American rapper Playboi Carti has left fashion critics weary after showing off his latest ensemble. On February 6, a few images of the singer made rounds on social media, where he can be seen wearing an unusual outfit during the filming of a music video in Los Angeles. Shockingly, the 28-year-old singer was seen wearing what seemed to be a thong, leading to him getting viciously trolled online.
Popular gossip blog, Daily Loud, was one of the first publications to reveal Playboi Carti’s camo-clad outfit. In the military-style outfit, one could see him wearing a vintage U.S. Navy life preserver vest, camo NBHD shorts, TELFAR boots, Nike Pro compression shorts, and Tom Ford boxer briefs.
