Anonymous wrote:Melania Trump's canary yellow dress at UK state dinner divides critics: 'She looks like a banana!'

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-15108773/amp/melania-trump-yellow-dress-uk-state-dinner.html

Melania Trump's bright yellow dress has been branded 'ridiculous' by some unimpressed social media users, who also likened her outfit to a banana.

Accompanied by her husband, President Donald Trump, Melania stepped out in an off the shoulder number.

She accessorized the dress with a chunky baby pink belt and huge emerald earrings.

The look failed to land social media users though, who were quick to slate it online.

Taking to X one simply said: 'Melania's dress - not impressed.'

'Melania, what's going on? What's happening?' asked another.

'Omg,' a third posted. 'Melania's dress is hideous! She looks like a giant Easter egg or something in that canary yellow with the purple belt.'
A fourth continued: 'Why did Melania dress like a banana?'


Maybe she’s trying to be a banana because her husband is orange?


Orange you glad you’re not a banana?

When I first glanced at this picture it seemed like the belt was skin tone.

I did that too with the first picture posted here of the dress with all four of them. Eeek! Cutouts! But thankfully no.

I can see her press is out of the event and working the forums to control the narrative.
She may be possibly trying to make a mockery of the U.K. and the royal family, it seems. With all the money and expert stylists - it’s possible these have been chosen to be outfits to offend the norm and clash. It’s hard to understand the repeated offenses in another context. Perhaps luggage was misplaced?

I think it’s the purple belt that makes it look bizarre. Too much going on and I thought column dresses were supposed to be a sleek look.

I love the dress but wish she'd nixed the belt, and that has less to do with the color, or the formality and more to do with the fact that the woman has about a centimeter between her boobs and her hips. It makes it look like her boobs and torso are just one giant entity.


Yeah there’s something about the height at which that belt is placed that makes her boobs look saggy. It’s not the right silhouette for her.

...why is she dressed like the neighborhood pervert


It's a Burberry trench. Love it.



I love a Burberry trench but why is this SO LONG? Is it like the black tie version? I've never seen one longer than calf-length, and it looks terrible. Mid calf would have been fine.


Floor length Burberry? Who knew?

"Melania's hat is not by chance," said Marian Kwei, a celebrity stylist and Vogue contributor

"The hat with the wide brim that hides her face is pointing to a stance where she wants all eyes on her husband and his agenda while here," she added.


I maintain my analysis that to Melania clothes are armour: the crazy hats, the coats, the military style jackets, are all meant to create distance and send a message: don’t touch me.

This is the reason. The celebrity stylist is wrong. She is hiding.

The Burberry jacket and the banana dress are both way too long.

The dress looks better in this shot, really rich and complementary to Camillas dress and the bits of red and gold in the room. However the belt stands out as looking even worse here because it's so incongruous. If the belt were just the same yellow as the dress, I think people would like it a lot more. It just doesn't work in that shade.

Not to be nasty but it's amazing how much better looking even our trashiest rich family is compared to the British royals. Kate is an outlier; most British women are not that beautiful. Meghan is also beautiful but they can't claim her, she's ours. Hell, even Diana had American grandparents.

Just goes to show, even when we're down and out (and we're down bad right now) at least we aren't British?

I don't think people assumed this. The shade of yellow looks like a banana and the silhouette of the dress contributes to this impression. The other yellow dress she wore on a previous state visit didn't make anyone think "banana!" This one did, and for good reason.

Also many of us think the dress could be great in the right setting and with the right accessories. It looks weird here. Similar to her trench coat and purple hat, it becomes this eye catching distraction when you look at these photos like "huh, not sure about this." She's clearly trying to do something here but I don't think it's working.

The ugly banana dress is actually Carolina Herrera.


https://www.vogue.com/article/melania-trump-uk-state-visit-outfit

Tonight at the state dinner, the First Lady wore a canary yellow off-the-shoulder gown with a lilac belt from Carolina Herrera, which she styled with large emerald earrings and a pair of nude, pointy-toe pumps. The label, helmed by American designer Wes Gordon, produces their clothing in New York.
