Designer Fug: Salvatore Ferragamo Prima Flats

These are Salvatore Ferragamo “Prima” leather ballet flats, was selling for a handsome $390 (RM1369.49) at Neiman Marcus. And now it's on sale at $137 (RM481.08). I'm not surprised at the huge drop in price.

I’m here to tell you what you already know: they’re ugly. Fugly, even. No, really.

I’m convinced the leather and craftsmanship are top-notch, but the styling in no way befits the legacy of the man who shod the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Sophia Loren, Rita Hayworth, etc.

I wouldn't wear it even if you gave it to me for free.
