Eleven Thousand Dollar Balmain Jacket Sold Out On Net-a-Porter
If you were hoping to get your hands on that crystal embellished Balmain jacket from Spring 09, you'll have to wait until Net-a-Porter gets their re-order or look elsewhere. The $11,410 jacket sold out in, as far as we can tell, less than 24 hours. It's hard to say how many pieces Net-a-Porter had in stock but even if there were only three or four, we still find it somewhat jaw-dropping. Wealthy women have always spent unbelievable sums of money on clothing, but never has the process been so public. After all, there's a big difference between picking up a pair of thousand-dollar Louboutins and spending eleven times that much on one very bedazzled piece of outerwear. Or isn't there?

Perhaps Michael Jackson bought them all?
