Your best winter coat has nothing on what Melania Trump just wore.
The First Lady arrived at a palace in Italy – where the President was attending the G7 summit – wearing a Dolce & Gabbana coat which is worth almost $70,000 AUD.
Yep, that’s a lot of smashed avo.
The coat, which is really bloody fancy, is available from ModaOperandi.com for $US51,000 — with a $25,100 deposit.
Although fashionistas from all over the world were chomping at the bit to see Melania’s latest wardrobe choice, many others have accused her of flaunting her wealth.
And they do have a point. As The Mercury News pointed out, Melania’s coat could pay the salary of a teacher, police officer, coal miner or a Trump organisation assistant.
In fact, this one piece of clothing costs more than what the average American earns each year.
#Flotus wears a jacket with a price tag of over $51,000. While some U.S. families eek out a “life” on that or less. No shame #MELANIATRUMP

why is no one talking about the fact it looks like there is a big piece of Poo on it? (refer bottom left picture)
Well, her husband was a millionaire businessman before becoming president and that's the kind of things millionaires have and wear. I don't sympathize with him but don't think this is a scandal, though.
