(51,627 posts)She dresses like she has zero fashion sense. Everything she wears is a "don't". I went to Parsons and she would have never gotten through Foundation Year. Isn't she supposedly a fashionista?!?!?!?

I like a lot of Valentino, but this is not something I would wear, it's far too mumsy for my taste.

All I care is to get that idiot out of office,. I dont care about body size, looks or any of that. I just want an adult at the head of our country.

(36,112 posts)At first I thought the comments on Twitter, etc were petty, but then I gave it some thought.
Imagine if Obama or Bush had represented the US at the G20 in shorts and a tank top. There are expected standards and, unfortunately, they're especially harsh for women. Ms Kushner should have been in business attire like everyone else

there is nothing substantive about Ivanka

(53,410 posts)Or her wisdom and dedication to great human issues on the world stage, or her lifelong work to further womens causes or her work for the betterment of life for children, especially the ones in concentration camps on American soil.

Jesus Christ. How can there not be an absolute uproar. Anyone remember the outrage and R's losing their very "heads" over unelected First Lady Hillary Clinton participating in health care policy discussions/development?
So, yes, her dress is immaterial, but it is a symbol of the much bigger issue.

It is hard to say which of the dubious duo (Ivanka-Jared) I detest the most...

(53,410 posts)It seems strange that a womans empowerment summit would have such few women. It seemed overwhelmingly male.

(15,552 posts)The propaganda machine in our White House puts out all sorts of fake news/lies every day.
She wasn't invited to McCain's funeral either, but she weasled her way in there even though the family made it clear they weren't welcome.
Her name and the term "women's empowerment" don't belong in the same sentence or paragraph or article.

(51,627 posts)Ivanka looked dowdy and matronly.
lunatica
(53,410 posts)Regardless of her success or failure as the PM she always looks elegant. Ive rarely seen Ivanka dressed well because all her outfits have something off or are a bad mixture of styles in the same outfit. Maybe its me.
BigmanPigman
(51,627 posts)CNN is talking about her right now about being like a fish out of water as far as her "performance on the world stage". He dad was looking like her in an odd way. I wonder if he was thinking of how she "wasn't his taste" in that dress she was wearing.

(53,410 posts)Its exactly how she looks! Surely she has someone who tells her about the does and donts regarding proper attire at all high level world events. She seems to have gotten pretty bad about how she dresses lately.
Its unbelievable that the dress costs more than $4,000 dollars! WTF!?

(90,793 posts)...starting, as so often happens, with the father treating his daughter like a son.
No, with Ivanka we have pictorial evidence going back to her barely-pubescent self, that her daddy groomed her and molded into his personal ideal of femininity, in a very creepy way. Her face was remodeled early, she got substantial breast implants early. He's handsy with her in a possessive way. He boasted about her sexual attractiveness on a gross radio show.
But all this comes with perks. She gets to go where he goes, gets to play at being a CEO and presidential advisor, gets to play dress-up. As long as she does it the way he likes.
So she looks really out of place among all these highly accomplished international powers, because she's a poseur, and no matter what, still dressing like Daddy's Little Girl.
It would truly be pathetic if it were not so damned dangerous to all the rest of us.

(23,156 posts)Ivanka is the stupider Clampett err - nursemaid. Melania is sick of that role, PUtin and her couldn't have a private meeting this time, so she stayed home to tan her new "kidneys" or just get some time away from orange traitor tot.

It's a bit offensive to equate homemade with inappropriate, garish, or whatever else you're implying.

(14,337 posts)Word spreads. I also made 10 gowns for a Quiceanera Party, and all of the HS's Cheerleader Uniforms. Custom fittings. Got paid some very nice money for doing this on the side. Yes, don't knock home sewers!
Her dress is UGLY.
