(3,077 posts)It was kind of funny but she was very understated all dressed in black, maybe she was in mourning.

(296,868 posts)appropriate wear to me.. with all the money she has and she comes up with the all black from neck to ankles.. and the super wide tan belt?
I don't have an issue with what she wore. She respected the culture for the most part by being covered so there is that. The belt cracked me up though. It made me think of the 80's.

All the black and the big tan belt.

(3,077 posts)It didn't really like what she wore but it didn't embarrass the country so there is that. Just trying to find a positive.

(8,090 posts)that gold belt was hideous and the necklace didn't work with the neckline. Her hair up with emphasis on earrings would have looked better.

(3,077 posts)Not a fan of the belt or the necklace. They didn't do anything for the outfit.

Guess I'm a little "sensitive" to fashion this evening. Watched a Raleigh newsbunny in some sleeveless, above-the-knee yellow frock. She looked like a little girl at a birthday party! Truly ridiculous...probably gunnin' for a FUX gig, although she wasn't sportin' enough cleavage.

(3,077 posts)I missed the Power Rangers but saw the wrestling one. It's funny and sad that when it comes to women that so much emphasis is on what we wear. I get what you mean about the newsbunny too.

So now Saudi Arabia has weapons that the Obama administration would not sell them. Trump cries we're winning!!

Melania was a grown woman when she chose this life, but I'll bet she'd give anything to be back in Slovenia.
Not that I feel sorry for her. Nope. Not one bit.

(10,130 posts)she doesn't seem comfortable with the clothes she's wearing - or modeling. They always strike me as costumes rather than clothes, and they don't seem to fit her very well.

(61,690 posts)I will not fault her for this outfit, even though I don't like the belt. It was an obvious attempt to comply with social norms in the country she was visiting. She was a guest; she has rules to follow to not upset the status quo. I'm glad she didn't start an international incident over garb.

janterry
(4,429 posts)He is.
She's complicit because she doesn't speak out and I don't have much respect for her BECAUSE of that choice. But her belt and her outfits? I don't care much what she wears. I care that she stands by her man. Her man is a crook.
