NoIt’s not the usual one Melania Trump. Or perhaps, on the contrary, it is the most authentic Melania who has gone through the New York Stock Exchange to ring the market opening bell. A vision in total blackstudied millimeter by millimetre, to launch his latest bet: the documentary Melaniaan operation from 40 million dollars by Amazon MGM Studios which is causing discussion in America well before its debut.
Melania Trump, a leather corset to challenge the markets
For her catwalk on Wall Street, the former First Lady chose high-voltage “power dressing”. Protagonist of the look is a black coat dress with a tailored cut, made almost aggressive by a eye-catching leather corset belt that marked life with surgical precision. On your feet, the essentials Christian Louboutin I Know Kate in black patent leather: a 12 centimeter stiletto that is now his trademark, a stylish weapon carried with a ease that defies the laws of physics.
Loose hair in soft waves, the inevitable magnetic smokey eye and a faint smile completed an image that communicated only one thing: total control. “Quality storytelling moves markets,” she declared with a hint of irony, as she received an unprecedented commemorative plaque engraved especially for her.
The documentary of controversies
But behind the facade elegance there is a sea of criticism. The film, which tells the story of the twenty days preceding Donald Trump’s second inauguration, cost astronomical sums, but Hollywood experts are already talking about a possible box office flop. Pre-sales languish and critics describe the film as a «104 minute vlog»a glossy election advert that Melania obsessively curated as executive producer. What makes the climate even more difficult is the director’s choice, Brett Ratneraway from the scene since 2017 after heavy harassment allegations and recently came under fire for old acquaintances with Jeffrey Epstein.
Ivanka’s mystery and Melania’s loneliness
Between a frame at Mar-a-Lago and a trip on the private jet, the edgier side of the First Lady’s character also emerges. In fact, it seems that from the final assembly they are all references to Ivanka Trump have disappearedthe long-standing “rival” in the family, a sign that internal tensions have not subsided. On Wall Street, Melania was alone: her husband and son Barron were busy in Washington, leaving her as the sole protagonist of this cinematic gamble.
Will Melania’s impeccable style be able to save an operation that many define as “soulless”? We will only find out in the room, but one thing is certain: even if she doesn’t succeed, she will remain standing, on very high heels and not a hair out of place.
