FLOTUS Melania Fashion

[mountaineer]

She looks like Mary Poppins could pull a lamp out of her.

[RoosGirl]

I like the coat, @RoosGirl!

I'm from Florida.  We don't wear all those dark fall colors.  Don't be jealous. ;)

[mystery-ak]

We do and I love the coat..I even like that bag you posted..lol

[Millee]

Other angles...  (I love the coat)

How can anyone walk in the grass in such high heels???  Sorcery, I tell you!

Well....I have to agree ... the coat looks hideous!  The coat looks like it's made out of upholstery fabric....but I suppose it goes with the festivities; the 70th anniversary of the National Thanksgiving Turkey presentation.  Unfortunately the coat made the outfit look frumpy covering an otherwise very stunning looking outfit.

[Right_in_Virginia]

May we all look so frumpy.        Happy Thanksgiving!

Melania could wear dining room curtains and she’d still be aces with me. As long as they don’t have puffy sleeves, though.

I have two words for you: Boo Hiss.

That coat is AWESOME!

That's just your yankee sensibilities talking.  In the meantime, this sofa wants its upholstery back.

Whoa!  Who are you calling yankee?  I like the coat.

[RoosGirl]

Whoa!  Who are you calling yankee?  I like the coat.

I grew up in South Florida, so anyone living north of Jacksonville is a yankee compared to me. ;P

I would like the outfit in different colors, but then I wear black all the time because it matches my soul.

I'm ok with you calling Frank that, just not me.

Ha!  Take a look at the sleeves on her turtleneck ... looks like they could be of the puffy kind.

Ok ... now was that before or after the single malt Scotch?

OMG! You’re right. What’s with her and sleeves?

[RoosGirl]

I wasn't going to say that!  I wouod have been boohissed at again.

[libertybele]

Ok ... here's a shot without the coat -- much better... and the sleeves aren't as puffy as I'd thought.

[libertybele]

Argh!!! The headline reads:  "Melania Trump copied Michelle Obama again — but this time, it's a brilliant political move"......

Even in casual dress she's got Michael beat!

Michael who? Jackson? He's dead.

Seriously Frank ... pay attention .... I'm not quite sure if you're joking...but Michael as in Michael Obama....you know... Bammy's significant other.  Geesh.

I'm looking at your avatar and laughing laughing laughing....you should couch your words there...they kind of leave you hanging...out there....hahahahaha

I don't remember Mikey stealing the tablecloth to make a shirt.

Let me refresh your memory.

[bigheadfred]

Validity accepted. But not so refreshing.

I have a picnic tablecloth in that exact print.  Keep it in the camping gear.

[Frank Cannon]

I just notified the Mods to have you banned from the site. You know damn well there is no polluting this thread with pictures of that fat assed hobo.

LOL. That was my Halloween avatar and no one noticed, but I thought it was exceedingly funny. I'm glad your sense of humor finally caught up. ;P

What a great pic and again ... love her boots.

[libertybele]

Melania unveils first Trump Christmas at the White House...yes...she looks like an angel!

[libertybele]

Only pics I can find of the shoes are photographed by Getty .... they are gold in color and they are gorgeous!!

As always, her best photos are when she's surrounded by children.

(Looking for a larger pic of the gold shoes  ^-^)

Sweater and boots look---fantastic. 

But I just don't like her in big, full skirts.  I think a sleeker look flatters her much more.

Agree. That white dress is simply bulky and is unflattering.

[bigheadfred]

I think the "dress" part is fine. It is the sleeves that throw it off.

@austingirl

Yes, it overwhelms her.  Also, I think the full skirts look dated.

[libertybele]

I think the "dress" part is fine. It is the sleeves that throw it off.

The very first picture of her that I had posted, she looks angelic because of the background of the picture amd wearing a flowing white dress; not necessarily the dress itself. Agreed, the dress is fine, but what is with her and the wide sleeves?  Although I was giving some comparison to the puffy sleeves and angel wings. The wide sleeves do tend to distract rather than complement.  Her shoes shown in a different pic are really gorgeous and match the belt; however a much sleeker dress without the puffy sleeves would have been much more elegant looking.  Perhaps the puffy sleeves are in vogue right now?  The first time we saw her wear the puffy sleeves she was wearing a shocking bright pink dress and the sleeves were absolutely hideous.  Once she gets critiqued for a certain style, it seems she ignores the criticism and continues to wear that style anyways.

Like her husband's hair?

but what is with her and the wide sleeves?

I don't know. But if they were any longer she is scooping the gravy off her mashed taters when she is reaching for her wine.

[Right_in_Virginia]

I think the dress Melania is wearing is perfect for this holiday event.  It flowed gracefully and she didn't have to concern herself with adjusting a form-fitted outfit each time she sat and got up from the tables she visited (the point of the event).

The kids certainly "got" what she was wearing.  They're the ones who said she "looks like an angel". ^-^

I expect at the Christmas in Washington celebration to be held at the Kennedy Center we'll see something quite different.

[Frank Cannon]

She also wore this dress in Japan ... again with children and then meeting with the Empress.  The dress is both graceful and modest.

Like hell. It looks GD ridiculous. I would throw my wife out of the car doing 75 if she even discussed buying such an absurd frock.

Eff the sleeves. Do you know how hard it is to find a dress with good pockets?!

[Frank Cannon]

You too? My wife gets excited when a dress has hidden pockets. She doesn't even ever use them. She just likes sticking her hands in them and telling me she has pockets.

I never would have said Melania looked like a pink elephant in that dress if I knew it had great pockets.  Weird how they show up so well in the second picture, but not in the ones I saw of her in the same dress.
