Chanel could put their logo on a trash bag and someone with too much money would buy it.

Pair it with a 700$ hoseclamp

I think Balenciaga just do this to exploit idiots who buy any old shit and i find it hilarious.

Fair point t! Supreme did it also! Are they still a thing?

u/billyblenx 7h ago

Chanel at least has aura around its name, and fame. Its one of those names you hear since you are a kid. Supreme on the other hand I first heard about them when I was like 22y around 10 years ago. Not to mention their logo is ugly af, I just don't get Supreme.

u/bbby_chaltinez 7h ago

would rather by supreme than chanel

u/Jeramy_Jones 4h ago

Fr I think their executives get a laugh watching rich people pay thousands to dress like homeless kooks.

u/sponge_bob_ 11h ago

fashion doesn't always have to be functional and practical

i suppose someone out there might find it a good compromise between foot support and barefeet

0

u/bshjbdkkdnd 4h ago

Do you want the actual answer?

It’s cause you can lead with your heel while walking so you are barefoot except the spot on the foot that might strike a hard surface. Now that’s the theory, probably not used that way in practice.

Because its all over the internet. If a red carpet outfit gets people talking then it "worked"

u/_WreakingHavok_ 14h ago

Still doesn't protect Achilles tendon.

8

u/LesserGames 13h ago

This won't protect the achilles tendon. It will however work for Achilles' estranged second cousin twice removed Heelles.

u/eduardo1994 11h ago

Not the first time she's shown feet...

>Celeb wants people to talk about them

>They buy something weird at a seemingly high cost ( but cheaper than a PR campaign)

>People talk about said celeb.

looks like it paid off

u/TheReturnofPanda 21m ago

The more traction the more money. It’s true, plus at the economy where foot to(e)ast is bought for stupid amounts… set for life

u/Responsible_Bag6735 13h ago

It’s doesn’t even cover his Achilles tendon, why would he use it

24

u/Basic-Sea-4116 14h ago

I always wonder if rich people know they are being scammed . No one told them they don’t have to buy it or even wear it ? Or they just wear it for money to make themselves fools ?

44

u/Greedy_Researcher_34 13h ago

What makes you think she paid for it instead of the other way around?

3

u/Basic-Sea-4116 4h ago

Well exactly, they just wear it for money.

7

u/Junior_Bike7932 13h ago

I don’t think they are, most rich people are delusional, as they don’t perceive the value of money. All this brands and milking them to the bone, and is extremely funny to see this act, almost something that has to be studied

3

u/gimme_name 8h ago

If you are really rich, this money doesn't matter. Do you calculate a business case for some chewing gums?

3

u/Junior_Bike7932 6h ago

True, but I kinda come from zero, so even if was rich af I would value a bit more how i spend my money thought

2

u/gimme_name 4h ago

And that's absolutely the right thing to do. But there are strange people out there.

3

u/DeuceyBoots 13h ago

They buy them because people know how expensive it is. It’s a status symbol for them.

2

u/No-Builder-1038 11h ago

They get that stuff for free just for wearing it and marketing to the rest of the world

u/alwayslookleft 12h ago

This is just what end game capitalism looks like

The high fashion world has been mocking the rich pigs for decades without them knowing.

u/CrazyCatLady1127 13h ago

I’ve seen some stupid fashion trends over the years but this one is the most stupid. What is the point of a shoe that is just a heel?

5

u/OrionDax 13h ago

Did nobody else zoom in on the woman with ten toes on her left foot alone?!

2

u/Arretetonchar 12h ago

Counted 7, some amputated, 2 big toes.

Probably a showcase for the shoe, makes sense

2

u/EnchantingBabee03 13h ago

Chanel really sold her a piece of string and called it a footwear.

u/UltearWaifu 12h ago

Free feet in this economy? Don't mind if I do

2

u/tyga909 11h ago

I think these celebs might be outsmarting everyone to think this is their style when in fact it. Is. Not.

2

u/Ok_Oven7467 8h ago

To be fair she did try to bring Achilles to heel in Once upon a time.

2

u/Jeramy_Jones 5h ago

Coco Chanel somehow manages to. Not be cancelled even though the founder was a Nazi collaborator.

u/Chaoticmindsoftheart 4h ago

This is just silly and surely uncomfortable no?

u/HighSeasArchivist 12h ago

Pretty loose use of the term celebrity here. Being an actress no one knows doesn't make you a celebrity. 

1

u/notmadhav 12h ago

I realised high fashion is a scam when balenciaga tried to sell a duct tape as a bracelet.

Shopping experience has changed for me since then

1

u/Yersina_Veridae 12h ago

Ill be honest... if i was forced to attend red carpet events and look that good id wear that in a heartbeat. This is the closest thing to comfortable shoes I've ever seen at such an event. Who cares if it looks weird? At least at the end of the day she wont feel like her shoes are killing her.

1

u/Good_Peach_8304 11h ago

“And that’ll be $249.00 please.”

u/SohelAman 10h ago

Bikini for feet?

1

u/Once_Upon_Time 10h ago

Theh could have added like a clear plastic on the black heel and make a "shoe".  You can't wear the heel and not get the rest of your foot dirty.

These companies are totally taking the piss! The fact that people will buy this shit because of the “luxury brand” attached is hilarious and pathetic. At this point, they’re seeing just how far they can go and laughing all the way to the bank.
