By any fashionable standard, the little black dress that Melania Trump wore on New Year’s Eve was quite chic: a $3,000 cocktail dress designed by Dolce & Gabbana with bejeweled bows on the shoulders.

Italian designer Stefano Gabbana thought the incoming first lady looked quite fetching in his dress and said so on Instagram, where he thanked her for wearing it.

He called Trump, a reported longtime fan of the label, a #DGwoman.

(TWEET-AT-LINK)

But the post infuriated Donald Trump critics and further fueled the ongoing debate in fashion circles about whether designers who dress the future first lady are, in turn, endorsing her husband’s politics.

“Gabbana’s eagerness to see Trump wearing his brand puts him at the far side of one of the fashion industry’s biggest divides,” notes W magazine....

Over use of Bondo is unbecoming to most females.

Thank god I dont have to look at Hilary Clinton the next 8 years, or hear her screeching cackle.

The more Melania is shown on the tv the better. I am so glad/proud she is my First Lady

This may be going out on a limb...but I think this liberal land-mass is jealous of Melania.

Yes, of course they are, and why shouldn’t they? (Other than, you know, having better things to do.) A viewer either likes or doesn’t like an outfit.

I didn’t like her black dress from ... whatever recent event it was.

In a way, what could discredit the agenda driven media more than trashing Melania Trump’s fashion sense and attractiveness while trying to cram the bizarre notion that Michelle Obama is a gorgeous, poised and fashionable Super Model/Jackie Kennedy clone down our throats.

I remember that too. Didn’t she also get some new China for state dinners? Horrors!<<<<

I remember the china. Someone made a big stink about it thinking it was paid for out of tax payer’s money, but the fact of the matter is, she paid for it out of her own pocket!

Melania dresses tastefully. The wookie always managed to look like a fool.
