Can't wait to get mine. <br><br>Yikes, just when you think no one can come up with a more stupid way to show off their wealth.  Such conspicuous consumption is the height of selfishness, arrogance and human stupidity.  Too bad that people with such wealth at their disposal can't come up with better ways to spend it.   I don't mind that some people are wealthy, but it seems that people who are so blessed ought to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle, put aside enough to remain compfortable,  and then use the excess to make the world better in some way, not just spend money to show everyone how much they have.  No one needs a pure gold swimsuit that can't even get wet.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jabeehler]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2007 8:45PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on No Swimming in this $82,000 Golden Swimsuit]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's beautiful, but what a waste of money....<br>even if you can afford it!!!

But I guess Bill Cosby is right. Then again we do have whites who are equally at stupid in their comments. So I guess stupidity knows no bounds when it comes to race, religion, or what have you. I wonder if when you go swimming in this outfit if you'll sink like a gold brick. And one would think people would do more to help others then keep making these stupid outfits and handbags. After all there is starving kids and adults all over the world.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nimue10433]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2007 8:57PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on No Swimming in this $82,000 Golden Swimsuit]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is obviously not for the water, especially clorinated water.

I have often wanted to compliment black women on how gold looks so beautiful against their dark skins.  However, I'm afraid I would be accused of SOME kind of racism if I did that.  What do you think?  <br>PS I think that the gold bathing (?) suit is awful, no matter what color skin.  It's ugly, first off, you can't wear it in the water, and I'll bet it would be real hot to wear sunbathing.  Thumbs DOWN!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dorothy Tarantino]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2007 9:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on No Swimming in this $82,000 Golden Swimsuit]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</guid><description><![CDATA[The gown and the swimsuit are beautiful, but if one knows where (and how) to shop knock offs can be found for a fraction of those prices! We each spend our money as we please, rich or poor. The rich can afford more than someone like me, of course, and that is their privilege. I hope they have charities that they choose to share with, also. I do, however, agree with jabeehler (#4). As for Shaquanda (#1), this blog is about the clothing being modeled, not the women modeling. I am white, and resent your remark about "pale bag of bones" as most models are thin - black, yellow, red, or white. It is time to get over the color issue, don't you think? It's a small planet, can't we share it as human beings, which we all are? Perhaps you are feeling a bit insecure about being black. I wouldn't feel insecure about my race, however if I couldn't spell the word "sister" properly I would most certainly feel insecure about publicy posting anything that would show off my semi-literacy!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Charity]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2007 9:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on No Swimming in this $82,000 Golden Swimsuit]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</guid><description><![CDATA[About the comment from Shaquanda, If I am reading right she wanted to know why a "Sista" could not model that Gold bathing suit? and she said Everbody knows they look better in gold then some Pale Bag of Bones. and then at the end she typed "RACISTS" , Now to me it sounds like Shaquanda is the Racist, and why would anyone worry about something so stupid like what color person is picked to model a dress, sounds real childish to me.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JanieWren]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 8th 2007 9:35PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on No Swimming in this $82,000 Golden Swimsuit]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/07/05/no-swimming-in-this-82-000-golden-swimsuit/</guid><description><![CDATA[To me, it's not the price or the fact that the bathing suit is made out of gold, it's that the thing's ugly.
