Melania in Ralph Lauren for Kenya Safari

Friday, October 05, 2018


Mrs. Trump embarked on her solo tour of four African countries earlier this week with stops in Ghana, Malawi and now Kenya.  The first two stops went swimmingly well both diplomatically and sartorially.  Today, however, her choice of clothing for a safari turned some heads when she showed up at the Nairobi National Park in a crisp white Ralph Lauren button-down shirt, khaki pants and brown boots with a pith helmet.

Many people thought the pith helmet was in poor taste because it is "considered a symbol of colonial oppression."  The choice of headgear overshadowed the mission of Mrs. Trump's trip, which was to visit an orphanage and highlight conservancy issues at an elephant sanctuary.
