Putting aside the fact that her outfit looks like it could easily be bettered by clothes you could buy at TJ Maxx, why is the co-founder of an organization dedicated to fighting climate change flying around in a helicopter? It's up to the little people to save the planet?

[MustKnowHistory]

My hand knit sweaters look better than that.

[RummyChick]

wow..poor choice for $5000

You can probably look about like that from TJ maxx or some place like Target

[NautiNurse]

Why is this a news story?

[heartwood]

You could almost buy that at Goodwill, except they would have tossed it for the torn shoulder seam.

I don’t know people who recognize Givenchy but if MG wants to buy it, fine with me. If she spends $5000 to look frumpy or glamorous, fine.

The helicoptering, the jet setting, the multiple homes...you lose me there.

Zoom conferences darling. On your wall filling flatscreen.

It’s now fashionable to wear clothes that look like what the poors would wear for $50 but secretly cost thousands and the subtle designer cues are only visible to other rich “in the know”.

I’ve had many uber rich clients and people with that much money tend get weird, man

[Bones75]

Super rich lady has expensive stuff. Is anyone supposed to be surprised by this?

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Chubby chasers beware.

[TheErnFormerlyKnownAsBig]

Her personal trainer is working the wrong muscle groups.

[1Old Pro]

The price tag for the casual but chic outfit? Close to $5,000.

Use the 5k on a personal trainer and dietician and you an wear $100 clothes and look better.

[Hatteras]

Dressed to impress? Doh! looks like she caught her pricey sweater on the door climbing out of her helicopter...

[Red Badger]

Like her outfit?

I hope so.

You paid for it.......................

[NEMDF]

I have a sweatshirt jacket like that, only in light blue. It was $10.

[Red Badger]

You would think she could afford a sweater without holes in the shoulders.................

[TigerLikesRoosterNew]

Saving the planet is an extraordinary job which requires extraordinary privileges. That is their mindset.

[9YearLurker]

So how much does the watch, suit, shoes, etc., total for your average male billionaired hitting the City?

I think she’s evil and belongs in jail, but designer clothes are a nonstory here.

[TangoLimaSierra]

I once put a beautiful new saddle blanket on my old horse.
Same result.

[Tax-chick]

I can look dumpy and untidy by spending $14.95 at Goodwill.

[PGR88]

My hand knit sweaters look better than that.

LOL. And her sweater has a tear in the right shoulder.

[larrytown]

Inflation, am I right?
