川普言论“打扮得像个女人”激怒女性主义者
Donald Trump has angered feminists all over again, after a new report suggests that he has told the female staff of his administration that they need to always "dress like women" when at work.
特朗普再一次激怒了女性主义者,一则最新报道显示,特朗普对其政府班底内的女性工作人员表示,她们需要在工作中始终“打扮得像个女人”。
According to Axios, who spoke to sources inside the President's team, Mr Trump requires all of his employees to "have a certain look" and "be sharply dressed" at all times. But while for male staff members that mostly equates to having well-groomed hair and an on-brand tie ("If it's not a Trump tie, you can get away with Brooks Brothers," offers the source), the rules for women seem significantly more complicated.
"Trump likes the women who work for him 'to dress like women'," the report suggests. "Even if you're in jeans, you need to look neat and orderly." Insiders who allegedly worked on the campaign also told Axios that women who worked in President Trump's campaign field offices and are public-facing, but only on a local scale, "felt pressure to wear dresses" to impress the President.
But what does it really mean to "dress like a woman" in Trumpland? Donald's daughter, Ivanka Trump, has built a clothing empire off the back of her own Instagram hashtag #WomenWhoWork and a subsequent stream of daily posts showcasing her formulaic pencil dresses and pointed court shoes. Melania, too, favours this polished brand of power sheathing; figure-skimming dresses, double-breasted coats and nude Louboutin heels.
