Melania Trump boycotted by the fashion press: Donald Trump's rant
Gone are the days when fashion magazines solicited Melania Trump for their cover. On Twitter, this Friday, December 25, the President of the United States expressed his dissatisfaction.
Are magazines snubbing Melania Trump? For the President of the United States, there is no doubt. The former Slovenian model has always featured bold figures, with a certain appetite for luxury. Her puzzling allure and wardrobe is sure to fascinate. Despite her assertive style, the fashion press has reportedly sulked at the First Lady since she dropped off at the White House. According to the Breitbart News revelations, Barron's mother, considered "the most elegant First Lady in history", hasn't made a single cover in the past four years. Enough to piss off the real estate mogul, who was quick to respond. “It’s the best ever. False information, ”he said.
In 2017, his wife made the front page of the Mexican edition of Vanity Fair. At dinner, the First Lady was about to gulp down a spoonful of diamonds. A photo that was particularly badly received, since it was released in the midst of the controversy over the construction of a wall between Mexico and the United States. “Thank you VanityFairMX for putting Melania Trump on the front page. Great example of sensitivity, empathy, patriotism and editorial intelligence ”, laughed Denise Dresser, political scientist and columnist for the Mexican newspaper Reforma, on Twitter. Did the other magazines prefer to avoid attracting the lightning strike of Internet users?
Vogue doesn't want her
Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of the American edition of Vogue since 1988, refuses to put Melania Trump on the cover of her magazine. An editorial choice she never hid herself from. The First Lady just wouldn't be a personality she wanted to show off. “I think it's important for Vogue to support women who want to get things done in this country,” she explained to journalist Anne McElvoy in the podcast The Economist Asks, in 2019. Unlike Michelle Obama, who made three covers of Vogue during her husband's tenure. According to her, the former First Lady is "an icon" and "a source of inspiration for women globally".
