I don’t know why you’d ask me, but if you did inquire as to my opinion on the role of large businesses in helping the western world cope with the financial recession; I’d probably say something along these lines.

Given that is was thoughtless spending, borrowing and lending that bought about this global recession in the first place, it seems that it would be thoughtful of big businesses to start gearing their products around teaching people to spend wisely and be happy without needing extravagance .  Perhaps this isn’t a responsibility as much as it would simply be a nice, thoughtful gesture – but even so, it would seem about the worst possible idea for them to make their products even more outrageously excessive and suggest that the hard times are over. 

So, trust Prada to come along with this; the Miuccica collection at the Milan Fashion Week – crystal-decorated shoes, with glowing transpart heels, designed to symbolise the end of the financial recession, or so say the fashion experts.  Unfortunately, I believe the financial experts have already been quite clear about the nature of the hard times and concluded that they have, in fact, barely begun.  So, no matter what the “fashion experts” may be implying; you probably shouldn’t buy these shoes.  That’s how we all got into debt to start with – remember?
