She’s a gorgeous woman. But my ar-teeest’s eye does not like the faux hem line. It seems to cut her off.

I agree. The sheer bottom doesn't work. It echoes the sheer panel at the top, but as you say, it cuts her off.

I agree, it’s an unnecessary distraction, although I think I’ve seen her wear a similar border on another gown.
She still looks good of course, and the back of the dress was very pretty.

It’s the darned layered look that so many designers think is just swell

I’m with you

She can wear anything and look great

I think Melania can pull off this look because she is tall. This dress on a shorter woman would be a distraction and cut her into pieces. The dress is gorgeous with or without the hem—the hem gives it a wow effect though.

Although Melania is wisely keeping it simple without a lot of embellishments, I think some diamond earrings and maybe an elegant updo instead of her hair on the dress would have been appropriate.

in still pics, yes. but in motion it’s wonderful. And, did you notice that the bodice is ‘x’s’ - same as Brigitte’s - and, jaw drop, Brigitte actually hid her knees in a floor-length, and, sports an updo! (and I love her shoes!). Applause for both ladies.

I didn’t like the sheer bottom of the dress either.

She would look good in a potato sack but I would not pick this gown. It’s kind of blah.
