is why she wasn’t on the cover of Vogue as FLOTUS. Melons is a GD liar just like Trump. She would have to explain that she doesn’t really have a degree in architecture, doesn’t speak five languages, that she got here on an Epstein Visa and not an Einstein Visa (as fking if!), why she hates Christmas, why she fked-up Jackie Kennedy’s rose garden, that she “Really doesn’t care” about the migrant children her husband put into cages, and that she fking hates Trump. That’s why.

Never saw a wedding dress as ugly as that. With her face all wrapped up in seran wrap....er white veil?

Sorry for focusing on what a woman wore....though fashion is what Vogue is noted for, mostly.

That dress might have been a secret serial murderer?

The Saran wrap like veil, the bulging decorations that look like someone's spilling guts. The tombstone color and rigid headstone like bodice.

Wow, she had a very pretty face before the harsh plastic surgery. Too bad she ruined what mother nature gave her.

he was from the House of Dior.

A plain old misogynist, that would not surprise me. Designers used to be norotious for that.

but I also don't tink it is all that terrible. For one thing, it was 2005, and ideas about fashion change rapidly. The skirt looks kind of 17th century to me The 17th century wouldn't have cared for the bodice, but that type of bodice was fairlt popular in the 20th centurty

We train the media with our views and our dollars. We need to be much better at rewarding what we want and starving what we don't want.

I usually make do with the cropped images, but in this case, here's the whole thing. Gorgeous, dignified, encouraging. (Actually it's just the link - I've tried three times already, sorry. Someone else try?)
