Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, looking at you buddy
It is with a heavy heart we must announce that fashion has passed away. RIP Gucci u will live on forever. Cant believe it. I wanna run to u. Really cant believe this. @
Gucci has brought out a pair of women's leather and mesh
sandals and they are truly, honestly, remarkably, probably, the ugliest pair of shoes the world has ever seen.
Rather than torment ourselves with questions such as why, instead, for now, let's focus on who.
What kind of person would pay £615, the price of 2,460 Freddo bars, for a pair of these shoes?
I've done my best to work this out, but feel free to get in touch with your submissions.
Together, we will build the ultimate profile of the person that willing spends £615 on these hideous shoes.
