A fashion designer whose styles have been sported by Michelle Obama is boycotting dressing Melania Trump, saying she encourages “my fellow designers to do the same” when it comes to outfitting the next first lady.
"As one who celebrates and strives for diversity, individual freedom and respect for all lifestyles, I will not participate in dressing or associating in any way with the next First Lady," Sophie Theallet wrote in a letter this week.
“The rhetoric of racism, sexism, and xenophobia unleashed by her husband’s presidential campaign are incompatible with the shared values we live by,” Theallet wrote about President-elect Donald Trump.
“I encourage my fellow designers to do the same,” she continued.

I’m sure Mrs. Trump will not need handouts from dress designers. Besides she doesn’t need someone with tent maker skills.
Gosh!! What an opportunity for your ordinary inspiring up coming fashion designer to dress her! I prayed that she opens the door to the little people those designers that would kill to be given a chance! That would be so awesome... representing the little people!! Anyway she can wear a potato sack and look absolutely stunning! Come on MEL open the door for us deplorables and redeemable fashion designers!
Why would a super model want to dress like Saquatch?
Good. Keep that crap on Michelle.
Because she did such a great job with whatsername. Any left over weight lifter belts? Thanks just the same but I think Mrs. Trump has it covered.
Melania probably wouldn’t want her-——sour grapes.
.
Bake the f-ing cake.
No, the T is for Terribad clothing.
Who cares. She probably wouldn’t be seen their crap anyway.
Melania probably isn’t interested in “boob belt” apparel.
Never heard of her.
What are you bitchin’ about? I doubt she’d ever buy ANYTHING on the taxpayers dime. He’s only going to get paid a $1.00 a year. You have no viable issue of complaint.
There are WOMEN who do this? Is she transgender or something?
She seems to have been doing a really good job on her own, did she ask this safe-space designer for assistance?
Oops ... Irredeemables
Won’t bake her a cake either, I guess.
Oh my, but she is a beauty. There isn’t a man alive that wouldn’t volunteer to dress that woman.
Damn right!
