Ralph Lauren Will Reportedly Dress Melania Trump for the Inauguration
Harper's Bazaar ^ | January 17, 2017 | Lauren Alexis Fisher

Posted on 01/17/2017 3:24:57 PM PST by 2ndDivisionVet

Since November, fashion designers have been debating the ubiquitous question: to dress or not to dress future First Lady Melania Trump? Ahead of this Friday's inauguration, it looks like Ralph Lauren has chosen the former.

According to WWD, the American label (Ralph Lauren himself stepped down as CEO in 2015) is reportedly working on a gown and an Inauguration Day look for the First-Lady-to-be. Throughout the presidential election, Lauren was a Hillary Clinton supporter and even designed all the pantsuits worn by the Democratic nominee at the presidential debates (along with many more along the trail).

But unlike some of fashion's other outspoken designers, it looks like Lauren will be putting politics aside and embracing bipartisanship when it comes to dressing Mrs. Trump. If so, the American brand will be the first to dress the new First Lady.

Why offend half the country right off the bat? Though I'm sure some lefties will be mad about them helping Melania.

Hope he does a better job with Melania than he did with Hillary.

I would not mind dressing her myself, but I don’t think Donald would go for that.

I’m sure he will. He has a lot more to work with other than a sack of potatoes.

Not exactly a resume enhancer, but at least he's not a mindless automaton rolling with the retarded leftist cause du jour.

Well, he did dress Hitlery but a blind monkey could dress that hag so this will be an upgrade. I give the dude props for stepping up and knowing the intolerant leftards, he’ll get burned for this.

Dress/undress, I bet he won’t allow either. He sooo strict!

They are likely looking at all the sales they will make for having a beautiful famous woman wearing their outfits.
And the fact that they dressed Clinton can be used to defend themselves from “you’re betraying us!” cries by the left.

Scott Adams brought up the fact that they were trying to hide a number of health problems and detract from an aging body and face with Clinton, so her dresser making her look OK was actually doing the best he could with what he had.
