    It looks like that’s a harpsichord Mr. Cheekbones is pretending to play.

      Whatever it is, it is upsetting (or boring?) Ms. Cheekbones.

    Gucci is becoming more weird by the hour…

    I like the ad. But I’m honestly surprised the Gucci board of directors are allowing this to continue. Do people buy luxury clothes that look like this? I think you can get the same effect from vintage?

      Yes! I often wonder this myself when I walk by their store windows and imagine I could pull off the same look with a trip to Guddwill… ?
