Outrage as Melania Trump Attends WH Thanksgiving Ceremony Wearing $9,400 Dior Coat

You would think Americans were too busy preparing Thanksgiving dinners to care what First Lady Melania Trump is wearing, but apparently not.

The First Lady wore a beautiful $9,400 Christian Dior coat to watch her husband, President Donald Trump, pardon two turkeys, named Peas and Carrots, during the annual Thanksgiving turkey pardoning tradition at the White House on Tuesday.

The White House turkey pardoning ceremony is a humorous and lighthearted event. But as usual, people found something to complain about.

The 48-year-old mom-of-one accessorized her fashionable coat with a black top and pants and a pair of black suede Christian Louboutin boots that also prompted outrage from the peanut gallery.

Some fashion critics loved the coat but they complained that Melania was too formal and loud for the occasion.

One Twitter user even went so far as to complain that Melania looked like a turkey.

The user tweeted: "How nice of Melania to dress up like the guest of honour."

Harper's Bazaar compared Melania's fashion sense to former First Lady Michelle Obama, suggesting that Michelle's fashion choices were more economical:

"Conversely, previous First Lady Michelle Obama made a note to incorporate plenty of American labels into her wardrobe, as well as affordable garments from the likes of GAP and J.Crew."

Melania's outfit was hand-picked by her famed stylist, Herve Pierre.

I Love #Fashion But What Does This Fashion Even Mean? Pictures.

                            

Fashion Week is a time when the industry’s most influential designers showcase their latest work at star-studded events during which famous and/or influential people sit silently—often in sunglasses while watching tall, silent, pretty people walk up and down runways wearing what may or may not be the trends, or inspirations for trends, of the future. The clothes draping their bodies don’t always look like things you’ve seen before, which is at least partly the point, and they’re styled in ways meant to complement the designer’s concept, point of view, artistic vision, or whatever you want to call it.read more

Favourite Looks From Jewel By Lisa's Spring /Summer 2014 Collection.

Smooth silk meets print as Jewel by Lisa released their S/S 2014 collection. This spirited collection clearly borrows from South-East Asia as we can see some kimono-like outfits. There are brilliant eye-popping shades of midnight blue, effervescent golden-browns and a mix of other colours like green and pink in what looks like a burst of brilliantly muted lights. If the colours don’t do it for you, there’s the experimental mixes of angles and layers: We love the triangular butterfly shaped shorts and the bib like mesh on some of the skirts. There’s an unmistakable fairy-like, high street cool to the entire collection from the fez caps to the unconventional bibs and edgy angles. Check out a few images from the collection below.
