Melania Trump Wears $51,500 Jacket to Meet G7 Spouses: Melania Trump raised a few eyebrows when she wore a bright, floral $51,500 Dolce & Gabbana jacket to meet with her fellow G7 spouses in Sicily this week, a sum which is more than most Americans make in an entire year
Oh come on, what’s the big deal? First of all, this is the kind of jacket one wears when you’re someone who takes a crap on a gold-plated toilet. I mean, didn’t Trump warn supporters during the campaign that “you’re gonna win so much, you’re gonna get tired of winning?” Well I suspect that after looking at this $51,500 jacket and then thinking about all the massive cuts Mr Trump’s got planned for safety-net programs like Medicaid and Meals on Wheels, its safe to conclude that he was right and many of us are in fact getting pretty damn tired of “all this winning.”
But politics aside, I would have never dreamed anyone actually paid $51,500 for that jacket. I was sure she must have borrowed it from either Lady Gaga or Miley Cyrus. When I first saw it, I thought I was having one of those hippie 1960’s LSD flashbacks - I mean, if that isn’t about “flower power,” what is? In fact, it almost looks like a whole flower garden just threw up all over her.

Then I thought “my God,” that looks like the duvet cover off my grandmother’s bed. Either that or a bunch of 1950’s women’s swimming caps all sewn together. And let us not forget Ringling Bros. just shut down - perhaps she wore it to honor them? There’s so many possible explanations. And just then I saw that picture of the Trumps finally holding hands, and it hit me - that $51,500 coat is her reward for agreeing to hold those stubby little fingers again. Who says romance is dead?
