Everyone Is Talking About Melania Trump’s ‘Pussy Bow’ Debate Dress
Melania Trump wore a Gucci “pussy-bow” blouse to Sunday’s presidential debate and Internet sleuths are dying to know if she was trolling her husband’s critics, outraged most recently by an audio leak of the GOP candidate bragging about grabbing women “by the p—y.”
Conservative website Breitbart called it “amazing trolling,” while another Twitter user asked, “Who let Melania Trump wear a pussy bow tonight?”
The “pussy bow” retails on Net-A-Porter for $1,100 and is described as a “chic way to elevate office or weekend looks.”

In a conversation released Friday by The Washington Post, Trump boasted about groping women while speaking to then-“Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush on a bus before filming a soap opera gig. “I’m automatically attracted to beautiful women — I just start kissing them, it’s like a magnet,” Trump said.
“I don’t even wait. And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything,” he said. “Grab ‘em by the p–y.”
Trump’s wife issued the following statement on Saturday: “The words my husband used are unacceptable and offensive to me. This does not represent the man that I know. He has the heart and mind of a leader. I hope people will accept his apology, as I have, and focus on the important issues facing our nation and the world.”

Just occurred to me… the neckline on Melania Trump’s beautiful outfit – I believe – is called a “pussy bow.” Interesting sartorial choice.
