And in a 2004 interview, In Music We Trust Magazine described Saint's brand of music as "defying convention and going against logic."

MK Magazine described the line as "one-of-a-kind dresses made from black plastic trash bags." The San Francisco Weekly wrote that during her 2005 European tour, Saint's belongings were stolen, which the paper said, "may have been the best thing that ever happened to her.... Her slashed, duct-taped, hand-painted 'Trash Couture' creations were such a hit that she now sells them online."
