Open Post: Hosted By Prada’s Plain White $410 T-Shirt
Brand whores rejoice! Think you can’t be a fashion icon AND have yellow pit stains and a coffee/soup melange up and down the front of your crisp white tee? Think again! You can walk around with a clean white t-shirt for a minimum of 10 minutes before somebody walking by with a greasy croissant looks at you funny, while representing one of Italy’s most elite brands. On Farfetch, is a Hanes Beefy-T with a small Prada logo sewed onto it for the prohibitive price $410, guaranteeing you will be one of a very select group of assholes who own the new Prada logo piqué T-shirt. Go ahead, treat yourself!
While some folks are breaking open their piggy banks and mortgaging their grandmothers (yes, this is possible!) in order to secure one of these unique t-shirts that “features a round neck” and “short sleeves”, The Daily Mail reports that some unwashed masses are irate about it. These people claim you can buy “near identical tops for 100 times less”. These people are pathetic. Online, they’ve left scathing criticism and devastating remarks.
One shopper found the overpriced t-shirt online and posted it to a Facebook group with the caption: ‘Ok.’
They’ve also used words like “scum” and “filth” to describe Prada and their offering.

These people will never understand the complex emotions one experiences when going for a cup of coffee with a poor person who inadvertently bankrupts you by doing a cappuccino spit-take all over the front of your plain white Prada T-Shirt when you tell them how much you paid for it. It’s a pain so exclusive, so elite, so influencer, that it’s worth every penny. Seriously, who needs grandmothers when you can’t eat spaghetti sauce anyway!
