Funeral Pope Francis It began in Saint Peter's Square on Saturday, April 26 at 10 am. Among the invited people, we could see presidential couples from around the world, including Andrzej and Agata DudaWhether Donald and Melany Trump. Image stylist and fashion expert Karolina Kotas The rumor of stylizations in which officials showed at the funeral of the church of the church at the request.
That's how Dudowie showed at the funeral of the Pope. Right next to elegant Donald and Melania Trump
– At such sublime events as the funeral of the Pope, where the most important personalities of the world meet, not only the diplomatic protocol applies, but also fashion savoir-vivre at the highest level – the expert explained to us. How did she present a Polish presidential couple in the Vatican? The expert drew attention primarily to the wife of the head of our state. – classic species. Black, modesty, length appropriate, especially skirt. Agata Duda looks correct: black tights, covered shoes, length over the knee, everything as it should. Styling does not impress, but not offended – just, Safe elegance against the backdrop of the raw setting of the ceremony. The only thing that was missing was … headgear. In the context of the rank of the event and what we see in the first ladies, it may be noticeable – said Karolina Kotas.
The styling of the Trump marriage, despite several shortcomings, was to be a bit closer to the ideal. – Donald Trump chose a navy blue suit, which – although elegant – does not quite fit into the formal code of clothing for the funeral. Black is not only the color of sadness, but also the international symbol of seriousness. Grenade? A bit like someone fell from the office straight into St. Piotr – emphasized the expert. The president's wife did a bit better. – Melania, however, is a class in itself, but … Her styling is an example of how “almost” makes a difference: no black tights (and this is already faux-pas in such a situation), very high heels (we love, but maybe not for such an occasion). Mantile on her head, big plus. The length of the coat, which plays the role of a dress, most consistent with the label – commented the stylist.
Wołodymyr Zełnski with his wife as well as Joe and Jill Biden also came to the Vatican
The expert further noted that the Ukrainian presidential couple presented themselves during the funeral of the Pope “Symbolically, but with a fashion grinding” – The first lady of Ukraine presents with class, the upper part of the stylization is a safe and appropriate black. Lack of visible headgear – just like with Agata Duda – it is a matter of choice, but in the context of the Vatican you could consider a scarf or hat. Unfortunately, we do not see the lower part of the stylization, so it is impossible to assess the whole, but from the belt up – but from the belt correctly and calmly – Karolina Kotas assessed for rumor. President Zełnski was to decide on a completely different edition than the spouse. – He focused on loyalty to your daily uniform – black shirt, black jacket about military character and black hiking boots or sneakers. It is a style that has long been its reconnaissance signal and a conscious image procedure – It is to carry the message “I am with soldiers, not with salons”. Only this time … he was in the salons. And the highest possible. The ceremony of this rank is the moment when even the most expressive image is worth symbolically “removed from the shoulder, putting a black suit, a white shirt and classic shoes. This was missing and unfortunately in this case it is not an expression of authenticity, but rather a fashion dissonance. In short: symbolic uniform understandable, but still inappropriate – emphasized the expert.
How did the former US presidential couple manage to do it? The stylist drew attention to the common denominator in the stylization Jill Biden and Melania Trump. – Both Melania Trump and Jill Biden put on the lace headscarves on their heads – and It was an absolutely hit choice. Mantilers are not only a fashion hit about the Mediterranean pedigree, but also An important signal of respect for the place and tradition. They are associated with the Vatican, with Spanish Masses and the Italian Dolce Vita in the sacred version. It's a symbol of humility, but also beautiful. Will Agata Duda also fit? Definitely yes and she would add a nobility styling – the expert added.
The royal family at the funeral of the Pope was represented by Prince William
The stylist also looked at the stylization of representatives of the British royal family. The king's old son was to decide on “elegance in the British edition, though slightly less formal”. – The prince put – like Donald Trump – on a navy blue suit. And just like in his case, it is worth noting that although it is elegant and classic, in the context of the ceremony of this rank, black would be more suitable. Pomegranate introduces a light tone of “business”, which does not quite match such a ceremonial event – noted Karolina Kotas. – A plus black tie and black shoes that balance the whole and maintain a high level of formalities. Styling is neat, refined and consistent with the princely image – No extravagance, but with class. Definitely elegant, though more “conferences” than funerally – said fashion expert.
How did the expert evaluated all the creations we could see in the Vatican? – Most of the stylizations – correct, some very good, others a bit missed in the context of the label. But fashion is also a message, and each participant sent their own. Some more formal, others more personal. And we? We watch, analyze and draw conclusions. Because in fashion, even the funeral, the devil is always in the details – Karolina Kotas summed up in an interview with the rumor.
