Social media is abuzz over a newly unveiled Gucci anklet.

Twitter users have reportedly pointed out that the anklet, debuted as part of Gucci’s spring-summer 2020 presentation in Milan, seems to resemble an electronic monitor.

The Hollywood Reporter's Ingrid Schmidt writes that the anklet also appears to bear gold bullets, which in fact are Gucci Beauty lipsticks.

“As headlines trumpet a potential Trump impeachment and prison time for stars charged in the Operation Varsity Blues college admissions scandal,” Schmidt writes, “Gucci is coming under fire for showing a leather ankle bracelet that some on social media have criticized for resembling an electronic ankle monitor.”

The Italian luxury fashion brand was previously criticized for its spring-summer 2020 presentation that “kicked off with models wearing straitjackets, not intended to be sold in stores, according to the brand,” Schmidt explains.
