The Balenciaga T-shirt shirt that has the internet baffled
- Published
High fashion label Balenciaga is selling a men's indigo T-shirt shirt for £935 as part of their autumn 2018 collection.
For many it's not the price that's a big shock, it's the actual design of the item.
The top is a plain T-shirt which looks like it's had a chequered shirt pinned to the front of it.
And it's left loads of people pretty baffled.
