Seriously, I think she's just trying to get her hair out of her face in the wind. My wife does that.

I'm in the "leave Melania's clothes alone" camp.

And then I saw the picture and burst out laughing and thought, "GOOD Question! What is UP with that?!"

The whole picture is a hoot!

that has side slits rather than arms so her arm mobility is quite restricted. She’s not supposed to raise her arms because doing that forces the coat to rise just the way it’s doing in the photo.

It’s one of those coats that were the type Jackie Kennedy would occasionally wear, but they’re for photo poses, not for practical wear. Melania is trying to move her hair away from her face.

If you notice no one in that photo is actually ready to have a photo taken. The good photographers wait until the subjects are all ready.

The famous / infamous cover, because a crack runs down the wood between Neil and the band, and he's facing in the opposite direction, all apt visuals because he had already left the band for the most part, and his songs were primarily solo works in which he played all the instruments or used outside musicians.
