Melania Trump's RNC fashion: A scary statement
Philly.com ^ | 7-19-16 | Elizabeth Wellington

Posted on 07/23/2016 3:02:20 PM PDT by dynachrome

So while Trump appeared flawless on the Cleveland stage Monday night, whether she intended it or not, her all-white ensemble displayed the kind of foreignness that is accepted by her husband’s political party. To many, that outfit could be another reminder that in the G.O.P. white is always right.

Four years ago, Republicans fretted about trying to diversify their base, in the wake of Barack Obama’s clear voter mandate. This time around, with Trump at the top of the ticket, it’s obvious that ship has sailed. On Monday night, Melania Trump was a not-so-subliminal billboard for what’s looking like the Trumpian view of an ideal America.

And if that’s the fashion statement she intended to make, it’s a very scary one.

Ms Wellington also wrote about Ivanka.

“Trump relayed this message beautifully, not just through her excellent speech, but through her look as well. She was styled perfectly, from her (probably) Keratin-ed hair, appled-cheeks and a smooth (Botox’d?) forehead. But the best part of this look was the total affordability of her ensemble.”

I don’t know about when she/he was young, but I think that one in a blue dress is real. Who knows? You can do about anything with applications to manipulate images now.

A person who thinks a $150-ish dress is “affordable” is not in my universe.

Remember when Michelle Obama wore the white dress that looked like everyone’s grandmothers’ bedspreads?

Yes- the one strap design that looked like a sanitary pad on the shoulder.

Elizabeth wears carpet remnants, watermelon sacks and could scare the rats off a cheese wagon.

Her teeth take away from her like Melania’s puff arms take away from that dress.

What a stupid idea.

I thought Mrs Trump looked beautiful.

What impressed me was she ordered it online.

I can picture her using a sewing machine too.

The lefties are nuts.

Why don’t they just ban the color white. Ban all white people...throw us in front of a firing squad or something.

This @#$% is getting ridiculous. WHY are we putting up with it?

Gee whiz, Michelle has worn so many crap-wraps I wouldn’t know where to start on her fashion sense or lack of.

Since they are picking Melania apart, I guess Bill and Chelsea are fair game now, just saying.

I bet Ivanka’s cost a few thousand dollars less than the
Giorgio Armani jacket Hillary recently wore.

It is scary to me that people think like this in this country. What the hell is wrong with them?

They are products of the public school system.

"To many, that outfit could be another reminder that in the G.O.P. white is always right."

Sure.. It only make sense that the dimocraps would find the whites and all colors of lightness to be offensive to them..

It's the "Dark Side" they find pleasing to their hearts and mind... That's what comes natural to them...

Vampires are a good example of this..!! Wow..! Maybe there's a connection there... ALL DIMOCRAPS ARE VAMPIRES !!

Can you imagine what Elizabeth would of said if Melanie wore this dress after Labor day?

Winter white is okay after Labor Day. Best to wait until October or November though.

So she should have worn a black dress? How petty can you be?

Michelle has also worn a white dress.

What about all the doctors wearing white jackets? And the white sheets on beds in hotels, hospitals, homes?
