I love ugly things too, I love his collections, especially 2016/2017. Reminds Me of second hand and vintage clothing with glamour and embellishments, awesome ❤

[@schizofrito]

I miss Tom Ford

[@drad565]

They should’ve interviewed Virgil Abloh, regardless of his passing. His story is one of rising up to the challenge. Legend RIP

[@B_Bodziak]

Sounds a bit difficult to do.

[@nicole43216h]

I'm not sure a dead man has much to say.

[@jonnyfendi2003]

like everyone else says about Virgil, "just interview Raf Simons"

[@daddychill619]

Is that Jesus making clothes

[@daddychill619]

Love guru 🤣

[@xavierwilliams4119]

Now I get it

[@mariateresa6134]

Gucci is looking like goodwill lately.

[@curlyhairdudeify]

Yeah, no wonder their dakes are plummetting.

[@Pureimagination200]

That’s why I love Gucci...the fashion is weird...brava

[@reneeoleari]

I love this!

[@Mortimer_Duke]

Politicians won’t talk to her anymore

[@melindathomas21]

I love Gucci,, BUT DAMN WHO CAN AFFORD IT?? IT'S ASHAMED THEY MAKE it to where just an average person like me ..WORKS 2 JOBS, AND STILL CAN'T AFFORD IT.. OH WELL I CAN WINDOW SHOP.. AND 😉😋

[@richgranados11]

These fashion companies overinflate their prices. There’s documentaries about this. It’s annoying. I don’t know why they charge me so much for Aldo glasses when it’s cheap plastic. Basically, people associate bougie stuff with Italian brand names and perpetuate the myth that there’s something mystical about a product that could be honestly be made in Bangladesh (with no one knowing the difference) but wait it has an Italian name so it must be good

[@ludovicbeck2731]

Well if it can make you feel any better, I haven’t bought anything from Gucci at all in years. Their new head of design is just too much for me I hate their creations now when I used to love Gucci… So even though I can afford it I’m still empty handed just like you sis… 😅😂😂

[@AlexCio]

you can only think this way if you realized the world trys always to be somebody else ^^

[@Blingchachink]

A dream

[@curlyhairdudeify]

The man who destroyed Gucci.

[@axi8013]

⚡❤⚡❤⚡❤⚡

[@Harley.Davidson]

The Yoko Ono of fashion. 🤣 Next.

[@newtempphone-ash9507]

what does that even mean?

[@karaoke_bqv]

@@newtempphone-ash9507 do you know Yoko Ono?

[@tegridyweed7863]

He must be a fan of those woke menstrual paintings.

[@ck1234k]

標新立異！

[@ludovicbeck2731]

He really LOVES “ugly things”… Gucci has never looked this bad in decades. I didn’t know that having long hair and an Italian accent made it ok to create atrocities.

[@Oussje]

This is a joke

[@monsterautomobile]

that's fine, you not the head of a fashion empire and he is. imagine wanting the same boring clothing that's been regurgitated for decades

[@curlyhairdudeify]

​@@monsterautomobile He is regurgitating Goodwill American clothes from donations bins circa 1980-90s.

[@t.h.2605]

Why he likes ugly things? Probably to make what he makes look nice just by comparison 😎.

[@JB-lm5xt]

Yeah….NO
