Gucci Removes this Sweater for the Most Ridiculous Reason Ever

I think Gucci knew full well what they were doing. The bigger the uproar, the more interest in the brand. They're making thousands of sales right now because people are flocking to the Gucci site to see this "offensive" piece of clothing and buying other shit whilst they're there.

No such thing as bad publicity.

What did I tell you?

It's an ugly sweater anyway.

I don't understand why people would buy it. It looks like crap only just for the brand they buy such ugly things

That sweater was never meant to be pretty. It was made to stir up controversy and it did that very well. Despite, and thanks to, all the "outrage", the Gucci brand is doing financially better than every before. AND those sweaters have become collectors' items too.

I never liked the brand anyways. We have people here buying fake gucci pretending it to be real. Fake or not fake it doesn't have nice items for such a big brand and this whole thing was indeed a good way to drive attention.

Yeah. Why should I pay hundreds of dollars more for the stuff that was made in the same sweatshop as the cheap stuff? It's insulting to everyone involved.

We are living in a plastic culture of fake, manufactured outrage. That said, I don't agree with spending thousands on clothing, but Versace is the best Italian label. Medusa heads and mosaics FTW.
