Everyone is making the same joke about Balenciaga’s new €6,500 coat

Balenciaga have done it again.

And by 'it', of course, we mean created something totally over the top - and that has social media users in a frenzy. Their latest creation is a seven-layered jacket that retails for a staggering €6,500 and is made up of a "combination of plaid shirts, jersey hoodies, and technical fleeces, featuring cuffed sleeves, two front patch pockets, a drawstring hood and a coordinating hem." And it's looking really familiar to fans of Friends. Like, really, really familiar. For comparison, this is the coat by Balenciaga: And this is Joey, after he throws on all of Chandler's clothes that he can find: The resemblance is uncanny, really. Social media users were soon comparing the two, with many calling Joey "ahead of his time" fashion-wise - or, at least, the inspiration behind the coat. https://twitter.com/c_illidge/status/1034786822826745856 https://twitter.com/MrJHoban/status/1035254922592354305 https://twitter.com/HDashtia/status/1035244593980342273 https://twitter.com/_ThomasJMoore_/status/1035235817277583362 https://twitter.com/p_chidichimo3/status/1034875526945689601 https://twitter.com/l0ttiehall/status/1034889022341038081 The fashion house has been known to push the boundaries of fashion, with recent offerings including an almost-€2,000 rubber skirt that looked like a car mat; a €2,250 trousers-boot hybrid that was just baffling; and a €1,072 shirt-outside-a-shirt. And let's not forget the time that they debuted a new 'it' bag that looked just like a €2 IKEA bag - who knew the furniture company was so on trend?
