If you go to the third or fourth slide you can see the cocktail dress Usha thought was appropriate for a luncheon. At least it's a pretty color on her?

Melania looks good in these photos. She looks good in white, and the outfit is a tad office-y but okay enough for lunch.

Usha seems to have a line that looks like a bra strap. Whatever it is, it does not look good.

Sorry no. She looks like an old woman. She doesn’t need to be a fashion model but she needs to put more effort if she is going to be on the world stage.

She looks like an old woman because of her hair and posture, combined with her frame, not the dress. It’s a good example of the debate around here on whether being too thin is aging

Being thin doesn’t make her look old, not styling her hair, wearing drab colors and no makeup makes her look old. She really shifts between the extremes, which is odd for a semi public figure.

I gotta be honest I don’t understand the “she’s so thin everything looks beautiful on her vs. she’s so thin she looks old” discourse. I said this before when someone insisted she was just so petite she probably couldn’t buy clothes off the rack.

JD is 6’2” and the height discrepancy when they’re standing next to each other is not that of a 6’2” man and his 4’11” wife. If I had to guess her height I’d say 5’4”-5’6”.

And she is not rail thin. She is thin and in shape for sure but some of you act like she’s a malnourished waif a la Kate Middleton. She looks thin but healthy. Again if I had to guess I’d say 120-130ish which is normal for a woman her height.

She married a Catholic. Our choices have consequences (I say this for myself too).

She didn’t marry a Catholic. She married a guy who was vaguely non denominational Christian and they had a totally non denominational wedding. He converted years later as part of what seems like a personality transplant thanks to Thiele. Anyway, I think the people who tink he’ll ditch her for a lava robot are totally off base. He seems smitten and I think he knows he totally married up. It may be his one positive quality. If they split. I think it will be because she finally finds a line in the sand that she can’t cross.

Smitten? lol. Absolutely zero genuine chemistry between the two of them. Two bad actors. She’s clearly not even trying with her appearance because it seems to be a typical sexless political marriage.

Very strange take. There is no more or less "chemistry" between them than any other political couple.

They are millennials who’ve only been married for less than a decade and she very clearly could not care less about her appearance around her husband. She puts no effort into being an attractive wife and her husband has about the highest profile job in the world. Not only a sexless marriage, the lack of effort almost seems like passive-aggressive contempt for him. They were groomed by Prof. Chua, who puts tremendous emphasis on physical appearance. The whole thing reeks of arranged marriage and IVF kids.

It's strange how you presume to know anything about their marriage. Creepy, actually. And totally off-topic. If you were discussing a Democratic couple like this, you'd be pounced on by the LWNJs who would call you a total sexist - and they'd actually be right. Why should she "dress for her husband"? Maybe her husband likes the way she looks and dresses. You sound very... retro, and that's putting it kindly.

What’s being discussed has nothing to do with politics. Anyone with eyes can tell when a husband and especially a wife appears checked out physically around their spouse. When you’re in love, you put effort into your appearance. Effort is attractive. Optics as a couple are important. These are two young rich lawyers with a high profile life, who haven’t been married that long. Constantly looking frumpy and checked out is a deliberate choice. If there ever was, there is apparently no spark left in this relationship. My takeaway is she hates the man she’s married to and passively aggressively wants the public to know it.

I love the armchair psychoanalysis of a couple whose private lives you know nothing about. Very entertaining! My takeaway is you are clearly projecting the failures of your own marriage.

‘I know you are but what am I’ is really high level discourse. We have eyes, we can clearly see a young and wealthy 39 year old woman’s appearance and style suffering from purposeful regression.

These are two Ivy League law school gunners, they aren’t granola kooks living in Boulder working remotely for some wildlife nonprofit. What she’s doing is deliberate passive-aggressiveness.

+1. We learned a whole lot about PP in that post. Nothing about JD and Usha though.

It's not still mourning. She's in black because it's a papal Mass. Catholic queens wear all-white, everyone else wears all black.

And yes, you are allowed to wear lipstick at the Vatican. Every other woman had their hair done and makeup on.

Actually only the Spanish queen is allowed to wear white and they changed that rule after a Spanish queen wore basically a wedding dress to a funeral. Now the Spanish queen may wear white to a papal mass that isn’t a funeral.

The AI is your buddy:
Those permitted to wear white garments include the Queen of Spain, Queen of Belgium, the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, the Princess of Monaco, and the princesses of the House of Savoy. The privilege is not used by the wives of all Catholic monarchs or by the Catholic wives of non-Catholic monarchs.

I know this is about the women but I just can't get over how unattractive he is. I can't imagine being intimate with him.

I actually think he is better looking than her, which is not saying much.

In their wedding pics, she was much cuter than him. But now that he's lost weight and grown a beard to cover is weak chin, he's cuter.

I totally disagree. She doesn't have to be all made up and dye her hair just to please you. She always looks nice and certainly appropriate.

Oh, I see Usha's fangirl is back.

She rarely looks nice and appropriate. She wore a cocktail dress to a luncheon today. That's not appropriate.
