PHOTO: Don & Melania rock the Royals. Give his wardrobe consultant a RAISE!

[Miles Archer]

[hlthe2b]

1. that white under layer is screaming to be released! LOL

Yikes... 230 pounds my ass

I was very critical of Melania earlier, but she looks nice there. Charles and Camilla likewise. The Queen, of course--she's always predictably impeccably dressed.


Trump... good gawd.

[GoCubsGo]

11. Yeah, I actually like Melanoma's dress.

She should have passed on the gloves, however. Just like she should have passed on that putrid orange thing she married.

[irisblue]

22. It is a very well done dress

She looks good.

[LiberalBrooke]

53. I agree

The dress is simple and classy unlike most of her fails.

[tishaLA]

95. It's lovely, but did she have to pose as if

she's on the red carpet for the Emmy awards? Everyone else is posed normally, but she had to do the 3/4 view "this makes me look thinner" pose.

[keithbvadu2]

114. The dress is beautiful - even for an escort.

The dress is beautiful - even for an escort.

[DesertRat]

118. I like the dress and the gloves

But why is there a man's shadow on her dress?

[TygrBright]

63. The dress is fine but WHY the wrinkly-baggy opera gloves? WHY!!?! n/t

[TruckFump]

83. The dress and hair for Melania, I give an A+

But I do agree about the gloves -- too heavy and too off white for the dress. The dress is light and airy, a spring look. The gloves IMO say, "Baby, it's cold outside."

[Nay]

132. That dress is gorgeous, but the gloves are the wrong kind. I'm old, so I remember the

type of gloves that go with this dress -- thin, skintight gloves with no bagging or creasing. Otherwise, as you say, they look too heavy for her outfit.

[TruckFump]

133. I, too, am older...

...in my 70's and I totally agree with you re the kind of gloves that go with that dress. IIRC, when the Obamas has their dinner with the queen, Michelle wore a light, white dress and long sleeved gloves and Michelle's gloves were the correct kind for the dress.

[displacedtexan]

90. Those gloves make her look like she transports toxic waste for a living.

Oh, yeah. She does, doesn't she?

[onecaliberal]

112. White tie dress requires gloves I believe.

[DesertRat]

119. Yes, I think it's protocol with the sleeveless dress. nt

[GoCubsGo]

129. I guess Camilla didn't get the memo...

[onecaliberal]

134. May be a thing of the past.

Evening Gloves
White evening gloves have become rare at modern white tie functions. Should you choose to wear gloves with your white tie ensemble then make sure they are white in color and made from fine kidskin leather

[TheBlackAdder]

78. That is the most cliche butler's outfit ever! I'm six foot and used to weigh 230 lbs, he's no 230.

[NBachers]

109. Yup, I seldom give LaMania credit, but it's due here, and I'll give it.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. Unindicted Donald looks like he's going to explode right out of his clothes.

Those little white buttons on the waistcoat could be dangerous projectiles. But the sleeves and the pants are too long. Did he borrow the outfit at the last minute?

[gldstwmn]

47. It makes his hands look smaller.

[dhol82]

3. Why does he look like he's wearing a girdle?

Questions, questions.

[GoCubsGo]

12. Because he is wearing one?

Or, more likely, five or six of them?

[dhol82]

15. Probably had to find some old whalebone to strap him in.

And what is with that jacket? Body too short and sleeves too long.
The SOB hates to pay for tailoring.

[peacefreak2.0]

59. Ha! I was thinking Boy Spanx.

[montanacowboy]

4. Where is Melonia's Crown?

Isn't she Queen of Trumpistan?

[MontanaMama]

29. She's definitely queen

of Dumfuckistan.

[hlthe2b]

34. I was more worried that Mnuchin's gold digger wife would have one on. I saw a tiara next to Mnuchin

and gasped before I realized it was Kate Middleton.

[mcar]

5. The ladies look lovely

Was everyone told to wear white? Chaz looks fine. Dotard looks like he's sucking in his gut and it won't end well. Bet he wants one of those sashes and some shiny medals.

[dhol82]

19. He could wear that Purple Heart some poor soul gave him at one of his rallies.

That was the saddest thing I ever saw him do - accept that medal.

[mcar]

21. Geez, I had forgotten about that

Pathetic.

[hlthe2b]

128. If there was anyone on his staff that were not 100% sociopaths, they would have worked to return

that purple heart to its owner with a kind letter. ANY other President would have asked them to do so. Any and all former Presidents would have. Trump probably tossed it in the trash on the way out of the venue.

[demmiblue]

6. Vs. the Obamas:

[mcar]

26. Michelle is stunning

And her maj and Phil look happy. Good times.

[stonecutter357]

36. +1000

[TruckFump]

85. This look -- the Obamas -- is absolute perfection!

Handsome couple and perfectly attired.

[ecstatic]

135. +1000. nt

[Blue Owl]

7. The Mango Maestro

n/t

[lpbk2713]

8. Where did the Queen find a penguin?

[CatMor]

9. Trump seems to have short arms ...

to go with his small hands with stubby fingers.

[Poiuyt]

110. Well he could have had the sleeves shortened

That looks like a last minute rental

[BigmanPigman]

10. Waistcoat too long and cutaway too short makes him look like

Humpty Dumpty. And NO SMILE...he looks like how I feel...miserable (for over two years now)!

[TruckFump]

86. Exactly.

It's like one could land the pacific fleet on that white strip of material below the waistcoat.

[Solly Mack]

13. That's a white tie fashion faux pas.

[llmart]

14. He looks like a butler.

That probably would have been a better profession for him anyway.

Ugh. He is just so nasty.

[dhol82]

20. The butler would have been better outfitted.

Fitted being the operative word.

[keithbvadu2]

115. Unlike Donald, a butler would be professional.

Unlike Donald, a butler would be professional.

[saidsimplesimon]

16. gag reflex, Prince Phillip

is missing in action? A sign of poor health? His absence is palpable.

The Queen's purse, does it hold the keys to the tower or the Davos meeting list of world rulers?

[dhol82]

23. I think you mean Prince Phillip

And, yeah - he’s retired from public events and only goes to those he wants to.
Obviously, this wasn’t one of them.

[saidsimplesimon]

27. Yes, correction to follow, thank you.

[renate]

24. do you mean Prince Philip? I heard them talk about this on CNN

Prince Philip has retired from public life, apparently, and so when he gets up in the morning he chooses what he wants to do. The commentator on CNN said he evidently "didn't fancy" meeting the Trumps, so he didn't.

[Tipperary]

49. He is 97 and retired from public life.

I would bet he is grateful for that right now.

[saidsimplesimon]

56. Thanks for the reminder

[irisblue]

75. Purse tells her ladies in waiting what she wants

Source--https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/how-does-the-queen-use-her-purse.html/

snip--"Handbag on the table
When the queen places her handbag on the table, it means dinner (or the event) must end within five minutes. That said, ending an event that isn’t yours seems a bit disrespectful — even if you are the Queen of England — so when she is a guest, placing her handbag on the table signals that she is ready to go in five minutes.

If you just so happen to be having a conversation with Her Majesty and she places her handbag on the floor, it’s not good. That gesture signals her ladies in waiting to rescue her from a conversation she doesn’t want to be part of. If it’s not possible to place her bag on the floor, the queen instead twists her wedding ring to signal staff.

Handbag shifts from left arm to right arm
When the queen shifts her handbag from her left arm to her right, it also signals staff that she’s ready to move on. The queen typically carries her purse on her left arm so that her right is free to shake hands."

And more at article.
Kleenex, lipstick, mints as well, like many other women do.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

17. He must be uncomfortable under that girdle.

[demmiblue]

18. Live shot:

[hlthe2b]

37. He looked positively pregnant. Poor Kate Middleton having to be accompanied by Mnuchin...

Foul...

[Evergreen Emerald]

71. Agreed

But, Loved her dress. I just hope it does not get the Mnuchin stink on it.

[hedda_foil]

51. The Queen is terribly bent over. I see why she looks so much shorter than she did with Obama.

[Dem2theMax]

64. The Queen has class.

I would have put a card table out in the backyard, used beer kegs for chairs, and served pigs in a blanket.

[procon]

66. Trump bloated belly protrudes out from his waistcoat, threatening

to pop the buttons and risking blinding someone standing too close.

[Bengus81]

72. ROFLMMFAO!! A wedding going on and everything in his "size" rented out??

Jesus...that jacket is for someone about FIFTY pounds lighter.

[MiniMe]

25. Has Phillip stopped going to State Dinners? I don't see him in the pics

[dhol82]

30. Let's just say he wasn't thrilled with the company.

Don’t blame him.
They would put me off my feed also.

[lpbk2713]

39. The Queen felt obligated to attend.

Phillip, not so much.

[obamanut2012]

48. The Queen has to attend

[Tipperary]

52. He is 97 and does not attend state functions any more.

I imagine he would not want to in this case.

[JI7]

28. everyone except Trump looks good here. im actually surprised

Melania wore something decent.

trump's clothes always look like he wore them backwards or something.

[dhol82]

31. Well, she likes to off her most expensive assets.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it was on orders.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

41. Those nice new kidneys she got last year?

[dhol82]

91. Exactly.

Never knew kidneys had nips.

[MontanaMama]

32. What's with MF45's

giant clown pants? Were those ever a thing?

[edhopper]

33. Waiter!

I'd like to see the menu now.

[panader0]

35. I wonder if he has any idea how ridiculous he looks.

[Hekate]

70. I think he has a magic mirror that shows him at age 30...

"Mirror, mirror, on the wall
Who's the studliest of them all?"

If it ever tells him the truth he'll smash it to bits.

No, he really does not have any idea how he looks.

[stonecutter357]

38. trump looks like he is falling over !

[hatrack]

40. Too much krill for THAT penguin . . . .

Somebody needs to talk to the zookeeper.

[genxlib]

42. I think his Spanx are too tight!

Stand back! There could be an explosion!

That is the ugliest tuxedo I have ever seen. Just a really weird cut.

[50 Shades Of Blue]

43. OMG BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

He looks like just got a glimpse of Trump Baby.

[rurallib]

44. Does that idiot ever smile?

Looks like he's getting ready to do some royal ass chewing for making him look ridiculous.

[IcyPeas]

50. he looks so solemn like he's at a funeral or something

all the other couples are making small talk and smiling. he has NO IDEA how to make polite small talk. he is such an oaf.

[keithbvadu2]

116. Donald smiles for the right people.

Donald smiles for the right people.

As his master Vlad approaches

[DesertRat]

123. Here's one

[blue neen]

45. Trump looks like if you stuck a pin in his gut, he'd fly around the room.

Wow, he's big.

[gldstwmn]

46. Grumpy because he didn't get to take his nap...

Look at the jewels in that crown and necklace. Camilla's tiara and necklace are beautiful also.

[DesertRat]

121. No Fox News over there

He missed "executive time" tv watching today.

[samnsara]

54. omg is that Erik/c in the back ground???

[TexasBushwhacker]

61. Sporting a serious 5 o'clock shadow

How tacky.

[Bengus81]

74. And it looks like he's LAUGHING. Bawhahhaaaaaaaa!

[BeyondGeography]

55. Those poor buttons

[jpak]

57. The POTUS is "sucking it in" for the photogs - lol

Wonder how long he can hold his breath...

He looks like he's turning blue

[lapucelle]

58. Trump's white waistcoat is not fitted properly...it's much too long.

Melania looked lovely.

I wonder what the Trump women thought of the jewels.

[LakeArenal]

60. LOOK OUT!! I THINK IT'S GONNA BLOW!!

[saidsimplesimon]

65. giggles from me, the truth is he has

already blown his wad. He is begging for scraps.

[TygrBright]

62. Dear heaven, COULD they look any tackier? Wow... n/t

[DesertRat]

120. Yes...

[jmowreader]

67. Men's formal wear experts, help me out here

I've never worn a tux.

I never plan to wear a tux.

Therefore, my eye for what comprises a proper tux is not what it should be.

However, given that...

Is the bottom hem of the waistcoat on a tux really supposed to be a foot below the bottom hem of the jacket?

[njhoneybadger]

68. That can't possible be right

he looks like an ass

[musette_sf]

69. Mr Creosote moment in 3... 2...

[Marie Marie]

111. That captured it perfectly...

[trueblue2007]

73. Humpty Rumpy Dump looks soooooooooooooooooooo angry.

they know the royals hate him and his NakedPornPictureGirl "wife"

[Gothmog]

76. Spot the difference.

[Butterflylady]

79. These pictures are worth a thousand words.

Look how happy she is with Obama. Notso much with dotard. Love it!

[Gothmog]

87. Yep

[Gothmog]

131. This tux is what happens when you piss off the homosexuals.

[sop]

103. Obama always looks like a man comfortable in his own skin

Trump always looks like he's about to burst out of his.

[KatyaR]

77. Why does her dress look like

someone's projecting a map of Oklahoma right below her waistline?

#Imconfused

[dhol82]

92. I think it's the lighting for the photo shoot.

I thought it looked weird also but finally decided that it was the lighting.

[DesertRat]

122. It looks like the outline of a man to me

[TruckFump]

80. Donald looks good?

Sorry, but almost everything about that tux is WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!

The hem of the pants -- too long, see how they pile on the shoes and balloon. The worst part? The vest and waistcoat. The waistcoat is all wrong and it does not appear to be tailored for Trump. The waistcoat is much, much too short. The white vest is suppose to just come below the belt line (although tux pants are ALWAYS worn with suspenders), the hem of the vest is just to brush below the end of the jacket. Look how Charles can grasp his hands behind his back and the waistcoat and the vest still hang and fit appropriately.

Donald looks like he went to "Friar Tux" and whomever fitted him had less than -0- clue.

[Chin music]

105. +1

[Chellee]

81. What is happening with that waistcoat???

That's ridiculously too long. Why?? He has money. Not as much as he says, but enough to get clothes that fit. Why does he always look like he's wearing somebody else's clothes?

I assume that he thinks that baggy pants and over large jackets, and whatever the hell he convinced a tailor to do to that waistcoat make him look thinner. If that had fit, he would have looked okay, I mean, sullen, but okay. As it is, he's a joke.

[TexasBushwhacker]

88. I think the waistcoat is longer

to cover and hold in his gut, but the cutaway should have been made longer to match it. Maybe he's frowning because he knows how ridiculous he looks.

[jcgoldie]

98. Or...

Maybe he's frowning because he knows he's the biggest dick in the world...

[Chin music]

108. Or...

He just doesn't give a shit. AT ALL. He's bummed no fox noise on the telly over there.
10 pounds of shit crammed in a 5 pound bag. That's my general assessment.

[musette_sf]

93. My theory is that he won't let anyone touch him

to measure him. And he doesn't want anyone to know what those measurements really are.

Therefore it's all off the rack and it fits how it fits.

[keithbvadu2]

117. Blame the 'deep state' tailor

Blame the 'deep state' tailor

[Caliman73]

82. The queen looks like...

"Bloody hell, I'm with the 3 people I'd least like to be around, and Charles. Is this hell?"

[Gothmog]

84. For this thread

Link to tweet

[smirkymonkey]

97. He looks miserable.

I hope he is. He must know he is not welcomed.

[Gothmog]

130. This tux is what happens when you piss off the homosexuals.

Link to tweet

[marybourg]

102. Yeah. Obama didn't need to wear a bulletproof vest under his.

[sop]

106. Obama would have been impeached had he not worn a flag pin

They almost impeached him following the tan suit scandal. And Trump? He just needs to be impeached.

[Buns_of_Fire]

89. Donald, dammit, tuck in that undershirt!

Just kidding. I didn't know that Walmart sold formalwear, though.

Be thankful he's not wearing his MAGAt cap.

[Kaleva]

94. Under Footman Donald dreams of becoming Head Footman someday.

[blue neen]

96. It looks like his pants are made from parachute material.

What a loser.

[DesertRat]

124. Another view of those hideous pants

[SeattleVet]

125. WTF?? Did he actually wear white tie formal trousers with cuffs?

Or perhaps were they too long and he just rolled up the bottom?

(Looks like this picture was from earlier in the day, since it looks like he's wearing his usual ill-fitting jacket instead of the totally non-fitting formal wear. PLEASE tell me that these are not the pants he wore with the tails and waistcoat!)

[Generic Other]

99. Here is something creepy I noticed in many photos

where only Trump and Melania are allowed an audience, in the background that gawking dental nightmare Eric Trump is lurking like he runs the Bates Motel. What's with that???

[Generic Other]

100. Where is Eric "Waldo" Trump

Is he lurking like this in every photo?

[Freethinker65]

101. Trumps exposed white waistcoat looks slightly phallic?

[SeattleVet]

107. Slightly?

(Found in a Facebook group - don't know who did the original.)

[Thekaspervote]

126. Good one!!

[NBachers]

113. Donald's trying to position himself so it looks like the chandelier is his Biggest & Crowniest Crown

[emmaverybo]

127. He looks constipated. But yes, the Royals look very, well, short. Diminutive next to Amazonian.

I can’t believe a Brit photog took the picture. Melanie looks voracious.
