To think expensive fashion brands are just trolling people?

I mean, come ON! I wouldn't wear that shirt out in public as a dare let alone spend almost a grand on it. It's hideous and looks cheap and weird.

Don't get me started on those disgusting Hello Kitty shoes.

Are they seriously just trolling (not me, as I can't afford it anyway, but I do think they are trolling those that are so desperate to buy branded that they design the most disgusting things they can to see if anyone's actually stupid enough to buy it)!?

They exist for people with money to spend said money. Rich kids of instagram and all that.
If they give us plebs something to mock so much the better.

I reckon the head designers spend a weekend four times a year getting absolutely twatted on prosecco and cheap Malibu, they take peyote and smoke everything they can get their hands on from banana peel to oregano, draw 572 pictures of mad shit then come home to the studio with pinkeye and shout at their workers "make these" whilst throwing their drawings around the room and that's how fashion works.
