The Internet bashed and ridiculed Moncler’s $22,200 evening gown and compared it to a ghastly $18 sleeping bag


I never imagined I’d say this one day but Moncler’s Poldo couture puffer jackets for dogs actually look way better than their latest offering for humans- a fancy frock costing nearly $22,150. Calling it ghastly would be an understatement, especially when you learn that British designer Craig Green was challenged with interpreting the trademark down-feather puffer jacket as part of a project and claims the dress was inspired by ‘dreaminess.’ The only thing dreamy about this “lacquered down-filled gown” is that it looks more like a sleeping bag than a gown and would lead you to a dream, eventually (or a nightmare). The official description of this ‘dreamy’ gown by Moncler reads, “The nylon outer has the signature lacquered finish and is filled with lightweight feathers and down, then shaped with a fitted off-the-shoulder bodice and a full skirt with Lemlem designer Liya Kebede’s exclusive patterned border.” You don’t need a very advanced sense of fashion to decipher something is really wrong with this gown, and that’s exactly the kind of reviews it garnered. One person on Twitter joked: ‘In case you were wondering where you could get a Michelin Man cosplay.’ Another said: ‘Looks comfy, I have to say! The price not so comfy,’ while a third commented: ‘OMG, I love this quilt/dress.’


Some also joked how that this puffy gown could help someone save thousands on liposuction while many compared it to the sleeping bags that can be bought from Tesco for just $18. Honestly, it does look very unappealing and could be used to style one of Disney’s antagonists. Or maybe Moncler can stuff this puffy creation into one of their Rimowa x Moncler suitcases and let the LED ticker read—never open!
