Jordan Taliha McDonald of Vulture gave the episode a 4 star rating out of 5 and wrote, "While Paper Boi's tour has provided a roadmap for this season, black grievance and white guilt have made way for detours." Deshawn Thomas /Film wrote, "Unfortunately, this week on Atlanta we are not provided with any sort of resolution or follow-up concerning the events of the previous episode, 'Cancer Attack.' There's no more Socks, and no more mention of Al's missing phone. It's a weird narrative choice, and I'm normally all for weird, but I imagine this will leave more than a few fans of the series feeling justifiably frustrated. Instead, episode 6 of Atlanta season 3, entitled 'White Fashion', leaps a few weeks into the future and focuses on the topics of performative activism and selling out. In true Atlanta fashion, the episode is filled with referential humor and heavily influenced by real-world events."
