Have to wonder the wisdom of business leadership who place politics above profits and exposure and get burned by it (as they do in most cases).
Even though the fashion industry at this level is well beyond my pay grade or personal interest, I hope those who do pay attention to such details reward those who aren't afraid to upset some snowflakes and communists regarding who is "allowed" to wear their clothing line. She wears her outfits with class and dignity and it reflects well on the designers.

Melania Trump is proving to the fashion designers who said they wouldn’t help her that dressing well is the best revenge.
The first lady’s trip to Saudi Arabia, the Vatican, Belgium and Sicily — wearing mostly Dolce & Gabbana — was a fashion tour de force that has forced many naysayers in the rag trade to rethink.
The list of designers who said they wouldn’t dress Melania is long, led by Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, Zac Posen, Christian Siriano and Sophie Theallet.
But Melania has managed to look smashing in dozens of different ensembles, from her white Ralph Lauren jumpsuit on election night to the D&G 3-D floral coat she wore in Sicily on Friday.
Defending the former model against critics who harped on the garment’s $51,500 cost, the Washington Post’s Robin Givhan opined, “Frankly, the floral coat is beautiful.”
