    I didn’t hear about this until today, but really? Tf is this sh*t? They’re trying to make blackface fashionable now? After recent controversies from other companies, u still go ahead and do something like this?

    then they want to claim ignorance and apologize...foh, these companies know exactly what they’re doing...

    people talking about “boycott Gucci”...well, that’s not hard for me because I would never buy their stuff anyways, but this foolishness has got to stop

    I mean, what’s next? Sambo mannequins? Smh

    Of all the stupid human behaviors, paying hundreds, even thousands of dollars for clothes is quite possibly the stupidest.

    and it’s all done for status

    so many of these thousand dollar clothes look ugly as hell, but people will still buy

    That was actually designed for anonymity of the mobile glory hole. Its intended for people on the go. Thank you gucci.

    They know what they did. Outraged people will spread the word but those people aren't Gucci's target demographic anyway.

    that's targeting the higher end of the master race but if you're barely getting by on $30,000 a year and feel left out
    Katy Perry's team is thinking of you:[​IMG]



    Like I said with the Zara's , star of david striped "piyamas', I don't know how someone at the marketing table doesn't say, "this might not be the best idea."

    I am very reluctant to buy clothing that is logo/brand name heavy.

    Why should I pay money for something and then walk around advertising it?

    Who cares what people do with their money? Same folks that think buying a 1k hoodie is dumb might dump 4K into a guitar or 100k into a car or a 350k “investment” house in the burbs.

    Gucci knew what they were doing with this. They should just do a Hitler one next time.

    If you think all Gucci fashion is ugly, you simply have terrible taste, and probably dress like a country bumpkin... :D

    LMAO.

    Touche.

    To be fair, I think it's douchey to have the brand name written across the side like that.
    I don't have anything obnoxious like that on mine. I like the simple clean look.
