You might want to at least READ the ARTICLE you GOOGLE for a HEADLINE:

“”He wouldn’t know Gucci from Smoochi,” said Marjorie Weeke, a former official at the Vatican’s Social Communications office. She recalled Ratzinger’s daily walk across St. Peter’s Square from his home just outside the Vatican walls to his office, wearing a black beret and black overcoat and carrying a worn leather briefcase. “

And of course, there is this:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1029759/The-Devil-wear-Prada-Pope-certainly-doesnt-—according-Vatican.html

“Prada said:”Naturally the attribution that he wore Prada was false” and that in reality the Pope was “simple and sober” when it came to his wardrobe”

At this rate, I am up to three figures now on One Trick Pony misstatements, falsehoods, half-truths and complete bogies..

Please, bring up the predicatable Marianism and I WIN the GARBANZOS!

Before his ascent and for the first year or so of his reign, the pope boasted of wearing Prada shoes.

He got a lot of flack for that (what a surprise), so his flunkies are now voicing skepticism that his feet are shod in Prada.

"Simple and sober" wardrobe.

lol. It's neither.
