Mind you, this is the same socially sensitive Louboutin that, during a worldwide recession, introduced a $6,295 shoe named after Marie Antoinette, that timeless icon of royal excess in the midst of starving masses.
Here’s hoping Louboutin’s over-hyped luxury brand goes bankrupt in the recession and gets purchased by Wal-Mart. Red soles on aisle five. Fingers crossed.
