It’ll cost you about $1,800 to look like you’re walking around with living creatures on your feet.
SITTING down on the second floor of NYC’s luxury department store Bloomingdale’s, I slip a fur-lined loafer over my swollen, aching foot. It feels like a warm hug from a cuddly cocker spaniel puppy.
After all, I’ve spent all day trying to track down a pair in my size 8. In this shopping mecca, I’m finally able to find fashion’s brass ring of the season — Gucci’s $995 ($A1397) kangaroo-fur-lined unisex loafer with horse-bit detail.
As I ponder the hefty price tag, a tall salesman approaches.
