7. She sure is good to herself with her Ferragamo shoes and
Channel suits. Honey, you aren't going to have any use for those things in Hell.

12. Imelda's justification for so many shoes
From a contributor on a listserve:

It went something like, "the poor want to see their leader dressed up in beautiful things. It's good for the national morale when they are able to see their representative at a grand ball or other function to be the best dressed person there. It makes them proud to be Philipino!"
