While Donald Trump was solemnly sworn in as president of the US for the second time on Monday, his wife Melania caused a lot of conversation with her appearance. Her hat in particular conveyed – as has now been analyzed – a clear message!
While some compared the hat to the oversized accessory from Jim Carrey’s cult film ‘The Mask’, with a Zorro hat or even a buzz saw, others saw it as a clear statement: ‘I’m the boss here and I do what I want. .” !” or as one Twitter user put it: “Melania in her mafia era ‘don’t mess with me or my family’.”
This time, Melania Trump did not take the stage in a cheerful ‘Tradwife’ costume as at her husband’s first inauguration, but in an elegant ensemble by the American designer Adam Lippes.
The look was graceful and powerful and consisted of a navy blue silk wool coat, a pencil skirt and a white silk crepe blouse. The outfit was completed by Eric Javits’ statement hat with white band – an accessory that, according to the designer himself, reflected “a thoughtful expression of himself.”
Thoughtful staging
But behind the stylish facade lies more than just fashion. Fashion historian Nancy MacDonell told the New York Post: “Melania’s appearance says, ‘I am flawless and in control.’ She’s sending a message that she’s going to do things her way this time.”
In fact, Melania Trump’s outfit looked like a well-thought-out production: simple, reserved and yet with an unmistakable message: she cannot be swayed.
“Unobtrusive, classic – yet powerful”
Hat designer Eric Javits was deeply impressed by the effect his work had on Melania. “When I held the hat in my hands, it was a simple hat,” he said. ‘But on her head he became something powerful. Everything came together and her grace and presence made it a very strong visual statement.”
