Melania Trump's most scandalous outfits: a jacket with a shameful inscription and a "colonizer'shat"

Melania Trump, a former model and the 45th First Lady of the United States, is known for her infrequent public appearances. However, when Donald Trump's wife goes out to support her husband, she receives special attention from fashion experts.

It's no secret that the style of first ladies is important because they carry a special message to the world through their images. During Trump's presidency in 2017-2020, Melania managed to distinguish herself with scandalous bows that outraged Americans, Vogue reports.

Jacket for 51 thousand dollars

As you know, Melania Trump is not indifferent to the famous Dolce & Gabbana brand. However, 7 years ago, the first lady's affection for the Italian fashion house played a cruel joke on her. In the summer of 2017, the star was spotted wearing a jacket covered with 3D flowers, the price of which was 51 thousand dollars (over 2 million hryvnias).

The image provoked a mixed reaction from the public, as the day before, the then American president had passed a healthcare bill that, according to experts, would deprive 23 million people of health insurance by 2026.

"Colonizer's hat"

In October 2018, Melania Trump arrived in Africa for a five-day tour. It was her first independent trip as first lady. While in Kenya, the celebrity wore tight pants, a white shirt, high boots, and a cork hat for the safari. It was the headdress that became the object of criticism. This accessory was associated with the European colonizers, who wore it during the times of slavery, oppression and exploitation of the indigenous people.

"I really don't care, do you?"

The same year, Melania got into another fashion scandal. For a visit to a detention center for children of illegal immigrants in Texas, the US First Lady chose a green Zara parka with the provocative inscription "I really don't care, do you?" Americans called this act heartless and unworthy of the wife of the head of the White House.

Court shoes during a hurricane

In the late summer of 2017, Texas was hit by Hurricane Harvey, which left hundreds of Americans dead. Trump and his beloved traveled to Puerto Rico to see the aftermath of the disaster and talk to the victims. At the time, Melania was photographed wearing Manolo Blahnik snakeskin stiletto heels, which outraged the public. And although she changed into white sneakers upon arrival, people still held the opinion that the model cared more about her style than about helping the victims of the hurricane.

Pink bow

Melania wore the pink blouse, popularly called "scandalous," even before her husband officially took office as president of the United States. In the fall of 2016, an archived interview between Donald Trump and Billy Bush was posted online. In the conversation, the businessman shared his passion for women in a vulgar way. Literally, it sounded like this: "Grab 'em by the pussy".

A few days later, Melania wore a bright pink blouse with a Gucci bow worth $1100 (over 45 thousand hryvnias) to the presidential debate. In English, such a bow around the neck is called a pussy bow. It is still unclear whether this element of the first lady's outfit was a sign of support for the women who were offended by Donald or just a coincidence.
