Melania Trump's style
A rare first lady today causes such a number of discussions after each release as Melania Trump, the wife of the current President of the United States. Of course, this is partly due to the odiousness and scandalousness of the figure of her husband, Donald Trump. But mostly the first lady is discussed due to her individual, well-recognized style.
Peculiarities
The most characteristic feature of Melania Trump's style is associated with her firm, strong-willed character. She is not your typical first lady who stands behind the president and does not speak up on any issues.
Despite the fact that Melania has never publicly verbally expressed her opinion regarding the reforms carried out by her husband, she sometimes expressed her attitude towards them with clothes.
For example, her choice of white pantsuit to attend the President's annual address to Congress is still controversial - was it "trolling" in relation to a fan of such suits, Trump's rival in the election, Hillary Clinton, or in this way she was ironic about her own spouse.
Another interesting incident was the appearance of the first lady in a mid-knee dress during her visit to Saudi Arabia. (this length is considered unacceptable in this country, as well as the bare head of a woman). Melania has been harshly criticized by the public, as the reluctance to play by the rules of the host country aggravates relations between the countries.
The First Lady is often criticized and even obstructed for her choice of outfits. - for example, the infamous “I really don't care, do you?” Park that Melania used to visit an orphanage for migrant children, or going out in high-heeled pumps on a visit to flood-hit Texas. However, the president’s wife does not respond to criticism, continuing to dress as she sees fit.
If we talk about Melania Trump's style, it is certainly classic: fitted dresses with a flared skirt or sheath dresses, pumps with high heels, well-groomed, shiny hair, carefully made makeup. The length of the skirts never rises above the middle of the knee.
Experiments are not alien to the first lady, however, they are not always successful, which is recognized by her stylist. He takes this calmly, believing that everyone can make mistakes, not an exception, both himself and the president's wife. For example, the bright pink neoprene dress in which the first lady appeared on the UN stage to address world leaders - an outright political failure (but it must be admitted that the dress is very suitable for the president's wife).
The UN has the strictest dress code, which prohibits men and ties "the wrong" shade, and bright handkerchiefs in breast pockets. That is why the performance of the first lady in a neon pink dress caused a wave of indignation both among those who were present in the hall and those who watched it on television.
Favorite clothes
Like a true patriot, Mrs Trump for official outings he puts on mainly the creations of American designers - The Row, Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren, Michael Kors. However, her wardrobe has room for both French and Italian couturiers. And in an informal setting, the first lady is happy to wear jeans and plaid shirts - and she looks great in them.
The President's wife has her favorite styles for each type of clothing. For example, in most cases she chooses a coat with a turn-down collar, a clearly defined waist, mid-calf length and a wrap. As for dresses, in most cases these are cases - with an American armhole or an original shoulder line, plain, below the knee. Melania Trump also loves mid-knee-length shirt dresses.
Such a democratic wardrobe element as a dark turtleneck is highly respected by the first lady, she often uses it as an addition to trousers or trouser suits.
Shoes and accessories
The First Lady has a deep fondness for high heels. This does not add to her popularity with voters, but she does not seem to care, and she is not going to change her habits. Whether it's planting trees on the lawn near the White House or a business trip, Melania will wear high-heeled pumps.
But in fact, any outfit of the first lady with any shoes is criticized - be it jeans with Converse sneakers or a coat from Dolce & Gabbana.
As the wife of Donald Trump, a president who is extremely unpopular with his country's voters, Melania is responsible for herself and for him.
That's why each of her outfits is examined literally under a microscope for both its style and cost (although Trump's fortune is such that he can buy any thing for his wife, and taxpayers' money will not be affected in any way).
The first lady is very fond of classic bags. Especially often she appears with the legendary Birkin Hermes bag, which costs a quarter of a million dollars.
Surprisingly, many stylists reproach Melania Trump for modesty in the choice of jewelry. And this is true - the first lady does not abuse them, but everything she wears is fabulously expensive. From what is always worn by the president's wife - an engagement ring with a huge diamond, an engagement ring, as well as a ring that the husband gave her in honor of the 10th wedding anniversary. All of these rings are very beautiful and very expensive. For social events, Melania chooses ear cuffs; in ordinary life, she wears ear studs with large diamonds.
Mrs. Trump is not indifferent to bracelets - if she wears them, then several at once, and all of them are quite massive. Mostly, of course, they are also diamonds.
Hairstyles and makeup
The first lady of the United States is not inclined to experiment with either styling, length or hair color.She had already tried all this when she was a model, now she has found the perfect shade of curls and their correct length. As for styling, the president's wife appears in public with her hair carefully styled, or with a low bun, or with a "shell". No braids and ponytails on Melania Trump's head can be seen in an official setting.
The first lady's makeup has also evolved little over the past 10 years. The only trend is the increasing shift towards clarity, graphics and classics. If a few years ago Melania could afford an abundance of highlighter on the cheekbones or poorly shaded shadows on the eyelids, now her makeup is flawless: carefully traced eyebrows, immaculate smoky eyes, a neutral shade of lipstick that goes well with both skin tone and hair color. The foundations for the face are also very competently selected - a balance has been found between matte and shine, thanks to which the skin looks natural.
The best images
One of the most successful images of the first lady, most critics call her attire for the inauguration of her husband. On this day, Melania chose a blue suit, in which she looked unusually elegant and sophisticated. For this outfit alone, many have proclaimed her "style icon".
The president's wife looked no less impressive at the party on the occasion of his election. For the event, she chose a long satin ecru dress with a flawless fit.
Very elegant white suit by Herve Pierre, in which Melania Trump and her husband met with the President of France and his wife, might not have entered the list of the first lady's most successful outfits, but a matching hat completed the look, making it flawless.
