Melania Trump's fashion scandals
Since Donald's election in November 2016, the presidential couple has never stopped talking. Words moved for him, held messages for her, the presidential couple is at the center of attention. Very often, these are the looks of Mélania Trump that stir the press and create scandal. Stiletto heels, jackets with messages, overpriced coats… A look back at the fashion escapades caused by the former model.
With each appearance of the first lady, the planet is in turmoil. Sometimes adulated, sometimes contested, Melania Trump's outfits do not leave you indifferent. From January 20, 2017, inauguration day in Washington, all eyes were on the sky blue suit signed Calvin Klein worn by the first lady. Could Melania be her husband's worst ally? According to Omarosa Manigault Newman (former adviser to the American president and author of the book "An Insider's Account of the Trump White House"), FLOTUS (First Lady Of The United State) would send subliminal messages against her husband "not always clear, but they are never accidental ”.
And to outbid: “the style rebellions of Melania Trump served the same objective: to punish her husband.” Fashion faux-pas, scandals orchestrated to make people forget Donald Trump's policy or a silent revolt against her president as a husband ... between mockery and hidden meaning, decryption of the looks of Melania Trump that have buzzed.
AN “I REALLY DON'T CARE, DO U? "
" I do not care at all. And you ? This is what could be read on the back of Melania Trump's Zara military jacket in June 2018 as she traveled to an undocumented children's shelter on the Mexican border. Should we see it as a rant towards the migration policy carried out by her husband as the New York Times asks or simply a message against the media according to Donald Trump?
HIGH HEELS
Melania Trump perched on dizzying heels and aviator glasses on her nose, embarks on August 29, 2017 for Texas. The couple travel to the southern state of the United States to meet people affected by historic flooding caused by Storm Harvey. An inappropriate style for the situation.
A LAVALLIÈRE COLLAR
This fuchsia blouse by Gucci, with its lavallière collar chosen by Melania Trump in October 2016 on the occasion of the second televised debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump is perhaps not trivial. Indeed in English, lavallière is translated by "Pussy-bow" ("pussy" also used to designate the sex of women). Some have seen an attack on her husband and sexist remarks released in a recording that were considered "unacceptable and offensive" by the ex-model.
A COLONIAL HELMET
On the occasion of a diplomatic trip to Kenya in October 2018, the First Lady again made a name for herself with the wearing of a pith helmet. An inappropriate choice reminiscent of the colonization and oppression of the English on Africans that reigned in the nineteenth century in the country.
AN EXCITING COAT
While Americans were preparing to celebrate Thanksgiving, Mélania Trump appeared on November 20, 2018 with a sublime coat signed Dior ... at more than 8,000 euros. A sum considered exorbitant at a time when the crisis is raging in the United States.
A WHITE HAT
It is wearing a wide-brimmed white hat that Melania Trump and her husband welcomed the Macron couple to the White House on April 24, 2018. Some saw it as a tribute to Beyoncé and her clip "Formation", taken from the album "Lemonade" in which the singer denounces the infidelities of her husband. A message to her husband Donald Trump following the scandal with Stormy Daniels.
A WHITE TAILOR
The First Lady appeared in Congress all dressed in white for her husband's first State of the Union address. Several symbols are to be seen there. The choice of the brand, Dior, whose artistic director Maria Grazia Chiuri advocates an assumed feminism. The color resolutely associated with suffragettes and which has become the symbol of women fighting against the policies of the 45th President of the United States. Finally, the pantsuit, the flagship piece in the wardrobe of Hillary Clinton, the Democratic candidate defeated against Donald Trump in the last presidential elections.
