The Outfits - State Visit

This is not a thread about politics, but about clothes, please

I usually look forward to seeing Melania's outfits, however I am really underwhelmed looking at them during this state visit.

The Burberry coat was too long and overbearing, even considering she's a tall woman.

The huge purple hat and the outfit were very boxy/heavy/square and somewhat mismatched.

The state banquet dress is a disaster! It's totally inappropriate! It doesn't suit her either.

Did she change her stylist? Her outfits are suddenly so much worse!

FWIW I think Kate's outfits look fab, although I am concerned if she's feeling well looking at her, I hope she's ok.

Catherine looked great and the hair down with the tiara worked. Melania is a beautiful woman with a great figure but I don't think any of her outfits were at all flattering, especially the Inspector Clouseau on speed trench (foot shorter would have been fine) and the banquet dress which didn't work on so many levels, from the pointless clashing belt to the fact that it photographed canary yellow. Excellent figure + access to all the couture and advice in the world = no excuse.

I think more subdued shades suit Camilla better than the eg vivid blue.

I thought Melania’s look with the hat was very Christian Dior I like it
