This £950 Balenciaga double-shirt thing is utterly bonkers

We don't even know where to start with this one...
One of the weirdest discoveries over the past week isn't a new species of lizard or another king found under a Tesco car park, but a downright silly (and very expensive) shirt.
Luxury fashion house Balenciaga - the company who also sold a £1,672 IKEA bag ripoff - is now selling a men's T-shirt which is basically a generic shirt with another button-down top pinned to the front for no apparent reason - for £970.
Not only is that ludicrously expensive, but... really? We're pretty sure they're doing it on purpose so that newspapers and websites will report on it. Oh, wait...
I thought this Balenciaga shirt was a joke.

We feel like Marty McFly did when he suddenly travelled to 2015 in Back to the Future II.
We're particularly loving people's DIY versions:
