Armchair Fashionistas Had Takes on Melania’s Giant Hat: Like ‘She Has an Entire Birdcage’ Under There

President Donald Trump and Melania Trump officially greeted French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron at the White House on Tuesday — and all anyone could talk about was the First Lady’s hat.

Seen in the photo above, talk of the giant hat dominated Twitter during and after the brief White House ceremony — with reaction seemingly split among armchair fashionistas. Here’s a sampling of the chatter:

I’m bipartisan in my praise of First Lady fashion. Melania’s look this morning was so classy. Love the hat, too. https://t.co/Elj1aVWnJu

Hats off to Brigitte Macron, who just managed a flawless French two-cheek kiss under and around Melania Trump’s enormous flat-brim hat. Which is gorgeous.
