Since Emmanuel Macrons election to office this past spring, Brigitte Macron has been shaking up the role of Frances First Lady in more ways than one. Aside from being 24 years her husbands senior, at 64, Macrons favorite unconventional fashion choices feature hemlines that fall well above the kneeand place her gamine, toned, and tan limbs squarely in the spotlight. Directly after inauguration day, Macron celebrated mid-Mays sunny days at the Élysée Palace in a cornflower blue Louis Vuitton skirt suit that inched upward to reveal the head-turning limbs that would soon become her signature. A belted black shift, also from Louis Vuitton, came next, paired with leg-elongating nude pumps. Even when swathed in sheer black tights, her willowy stems maintained a scene-stealing presence. But lest one think Macron only shows them off for official occasions, the First Lady left her home in Le Touquet-Paris-Plage on a bicycle in June clad in a crisp button-up, sneakers, and a denim miniskirt that hit at mid-thigh. And today in Germany at the G20 summit, Macron stepped out in a coral funnel-neck frock and flesh-tone stilettos that offered a leggy take on the political uniform. Historically, the French have never set an expiration date on femininity or sensuality. This may explain why, at a time when Americas youth obsession is paramount, and its restrictions on women ever-more pervasive (including Congresss recent deeming of sleeveless attire inappropriate), Macrons rejection of outdated age- and gender-related dress codes feels particularly remarkable. Visible on a global scale, Frances First Lady is cutting a liberating new feminist path with her particular brand of Gallic body confidence. In politics, as in life, what could be more powerful?
I laughed so hard, tears came to my eyes.
HAHA! I thought Ringling closed shop and they sent all their elephants to sanctuaries.
Well, I hear pink flamingos go beek-to-beek crazy over pencil thin legs.
Jaws dropped in wonderment all across France as the big question entered their minds simultaneously: “Are those her legs or is she riding a chicken?”
I don’t question their love as much as I question the intentions of the article.
Not troubling, just telling.
...”Its okay if its an older man marrying a much younger woman though.”...
For the first time, I am ashamed of posters to Freerepublic. This beautiful 64 year old lady is so blessed with good looks, very unusual for her age and the “CNN” fake news clones on here are trying to take her apart. For what?..Marrying the man she loves? I thought we were about the politics and the world view of people and how that helps or hurts the world. Why have you decided to Allinskyize and personalize this marriage through this brutalization of her age and the fact that her husband has political power! And, in addition, accuse him of being gay because he (God forbid!) he might have looked past the age difference to marry the woman he loves! GET A LIFE! YOU ALL NEED TO GO TO THE WOODSHED! If the genders were reversed and she were a man and he was a woman, you would not be saying these things. I am so disappointed in you!
Exactly. It takes a lot more for my jaw to drop.
IIRC, she was married when they started up...
What’s “jaw dropping” is the extent to which idiots in the MSM will pander and slobber for leftard politicians.
Brigitte is not unattractive, but “jaw dropping” is ridiculous, obscene hyperbole.
“Jaw-dropping legs?????”
This is journalism?
Birdlegs.
The troubling factor for many in regards to the Macrons relationship is the history. She was his 40 year old teacher and he was her 16 year old student in a sexual relationship. That is pedophilia. Although there is an effort to normalize pedophiles, they are not emotionally normal.
I would be uncomfortable having a victim of pedophilia and the pedophile in the WH.
Trump met Melanie when she has experienced much in her life as she was in her 30’s. Yes, there is an age gap, but he did not get her ‘young’ and train her to his liking.
LOL! This outfit must be her "signature" look. This is what she wore to the inauguration.
She must have tripped on the next step the way her feet are placed. Legs? Too skinny for me thank you very much. Needs to stay away from salad bar and start eating food.She married her son.
Looks like a Grammy to me
