All eyes were on Melania Trump at Jimmy Carter’s funeral

Melania Trump, who is days away from returning to the White House as a First Lady, caught the attention of the public with the unusual outfit she wore at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral.

A number of former presidents attended the funeral of former President Carter, including Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W Bush. As expected, President Biden was also in attendance along with his wife.

Donald and Melania Trump were both in attendance when Jimmy Carter’s official state funeral service was held at the Washington National Cathedral last week.

Her fashion statement caused a stir on the social media, and this isn’t the first time her choice of outfit to spark controversy.

Melania opted for a black Valentino trench coat, but it was the Peter Pan-style collar atop of it with a “rose-kiss” print, of a 19th-century sculpture by Auguste Rodin, that caught the eyes of many.

As per Women’s Wear Daily, this print was incorporated into multiple pieces in Valentino’s fall 2019 collection.

And while some loved the way she looked, others criticized her yet again.

“I’m glad this time, Melania found an appropriate black dress to wear to a funeral,” one individual stated.

“She just got off the Mayflower,” a second commented.

Others compared Melania Trump to a “pilgrim.”

“WTF is Melania wearing did the nun store have a sale,” a third person commented, per the Daily Beast.

“Melania wearing a pilgrim outfit,” a fourth said, while a fifth added, “Looks like our next four years of ‘What the f— is Melania wearing?’ starts today.”

A sixth person concluded, “Did Melania just finish up cleaning the bathroom?”

In the past, the public and the media criticized Melania for her outfits.

This includes the time in 2017 when she accompanied her husband to the G7 summit in Sicily and wore a Dolce and Gabana floral coat that cost $51,000. At the time, USA Today reported it was the equivalent of an average American’s household income.

Stephanie Grisham, former White House press secretary and author of the book I’ll Take Your Questions Now, recalled a specific moment when Trump went mad over his wife’s “mistake,” which made him target of wide criticism. Namely, on her way to a migrant housing facility in Texas, Melania wore a jacket with the text “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?”

In an attempt to help improve the image of her husband’s administration, Melania’s wrong choice of wardrobe only made things worse, and she eventually abandoned the program.

Another thing that many noticed about Melania was that she was unusually sad. The reason behind this was that President Carter’s funeral was on the one-year-anniversary of the passing of Melania Trump’s mother, Amalija Knavs.

Amalija passed away last year at 78, leaving behind a legacy of love and warmth.
