Melania Trump Wears 4-Inch Stilettos to White House Tennis Pavilion Groundbreaking
Footwear News ^ | 10/09/2019 | Ella Chochrek

Melania Trump is taking on the animal-print trend.

The first lady posed on Instagram yesterday at the groundbreaking of the White House’s new tennis pavilion clad in a pair of snakeskin Manolo Blahnik BB pumps.

Melania teamed her heels with a chic coat dress as she posed with a shovel next to the construction site.

The shoes were an unsurprising choice: the former model has favored BB pumps for all occasions throughout husband Donald Trump’s presidency. Named after the French actress Brigitte Bardot and created more than 10 years ago, the BB boasts a 4-inch stiletto heel, a pointed toe and a low-cut vamp.

Melania owns the shoes in loads of fun colorways, but yesterday’s pick was a classic black — done in a trend-forward snakeskin fabrication. The style is available on Intermixonline.com for $935.

“I am pleased to announce the ground breaking of a new tennis pavilion on the White House grounds. This structure will be a testament to American craftsmanship and skill. It is my hope that this private space will function as both a place of leisure and a gathering place for future First Families,” FLOTUS wrote in an Instagram post informing fans of the project. “Thank you to the many talented people involved for their dedication and support.”

I just wish I could still wear those shoes...that takes a stamina and skeletal structure that I’ve lost :-

I can’t believe we ever did. I feel your pain.....I’m in the same boat.....:(

I’ve discovered Danskos. At this point in my life, they’re trendy in their own funky-clunky way :-)

Those shoes are ridiculous. Any fool can be a slave of fashion.

...that’s why they call it ‘groundbreaking’.

If I didn’t break my neck and I was actually able to get from point A to point B in them without the agony of da feet I would still get horrible leg cramps when trying to sleep. And I used to wear those things all the time.

Gawd, I love our First Lady!

And my new podiatrist who is the first to accept my need to channel my inner Melania.

Melania should be on every fashion magazine across the world but she has to put with evil leftest hate.

Those shoes are terrible for women’s (or, I suppose, men’s) feet.

And damned uncomfortable for anyone who is human.

In the Trump family, I think it is his taste in women’s shoes that rules.

Sometimes, for women, no price of pain is too great to pay for beauty.

(I imagine Melania going barefoot whenever she gets the chance - padding all around AF1, for instance ;-)

So they are building a tennis court. Does that mean she will be out there playing tennis? In a tennis outfit?

It is situations such as Melania’s that shows how much such sacrifices of comfort for beauty can pay. In this case because she is meeting in this case the beauty standards of Trump.

I don’t think Melania is the kind of woman who would do anything she didn’t want to do - either for herself, OR to please someone.

She’s obviously very fashion savvy, and I think she’d wear those shoes whether her husband liked them or not ;-)

Of course, you are welcome to think what you’d like. If it weren’t for Trump, it’d be someone else she was wearing them for—I’d agree with that.
