Paris Honors Designer Who Loved Money Like Kanye Loves Drama
In a city famed for style and existential dread, Paris throws a blockbuster party for a designer whose 'over-the-top aesthetic embodied his money-mad era.' This isn’t just haute couture; it’s haute capitalism strutting down the runway. The show reminds us that while fashions change, the love affair with bling remains as durable as receipts from your worst online shopping spree. Quoting the exhibit's own words, this celebration 'speaks to our own' — because who isn’t a little extra when cash is king?

Nothing screams 'I love capitalism' like a Parisian fashion show worshipping a designer whose style was basically cash with shoes. The only thing more over-the-top is my holiday credit card bill.
If over-the-top aesthetics were a crime, this designer would be life-sentenced. At least Paris is throwing him a glorified mugshot gallery to match his money obsession.
This Paris show is like if Gucci and The Wolf of Wall Street had a baby, and it somehow got all the skin and none of the plot twists.
