Hey – Remember That Vogue Editor Chick Who Criticized Melania’s Shoes? Check Out This Before And After.

If you need a refresher on who Lynn Yaeger is, she’s an editor at Vogue. She was highly critical of Melania Trump’s heels (the ones Melania wore on the plane during her first visit to survey damage from Hurricane Harvey.) And Lynn Yaeger looks like this.

As far as I know, she looks like that ON PURPOSE AND WITH PURPOSE. And she criticized MELANIA TRUMP’S FASHION CHOICES.

Just let that sink in.

Anyway, according to this, it appears Lynn’s stance on criticizing women in politics has changed in the past decade.

As a reminder, here’s what she said on August 29th about Melania:

“This morning, Mrs. Trump boarded Air Force One wearing a pair of towering pointy-toed snakeskin heels better suited to a shopping afternoon on Madison Avenue or a girls’ luncheon at Le Grenouille.

 

While the nation is riveted by images of thousands of Texans wading with their possessions, their pets, their kids, in chest-high water, desperately seeking refuge; while a government official recommend that those who insist on sheltering in place write their names and social security numbers on their arms, Melania Trump is heading to visit them in footwear that is a challenge to walk in on dry land…

 

What kind of message does a fly-in visit from a First Lady in sky-high stilettos send to those suffering the enormous hardship, the devastation of this natural disaster? And why, oh why, can’t this administration get anything, even a pair of shoes, right?”

Her entire column can be found here.

Rewind now, back to February 27, 2007, when the same Lynn Yaeger, who looks like an Insane Clown Posse reject, wrote this in the Village Voice:

“The country may be ready for a woman in high office, but can we shed its lurid fascination with the details of her wardrobe?…

 

The problem, in a nutshell, is this: Unlike their male counterparts, women politicians have no single way that they are expected to dress. Whatever you do, you’re wrong: You’re either too sexy or too dowdy; too soignee or too sloppy. The apparently irresistible desire to savage women transcends party and even international lines: Condi Rice’s butchy boots and her shopping trip to Ferragamo on Fifth Avenue (OK, so it was only a few days after Hurricane Katrina) were widely excoriated; Segolene Royal, the Socialist candidate for the presidency of France (if she wins, she’ll be that country’s first female head of state) was hammered for traipsing around the slums of Chile in spike heels…”

You get the idea. You can read her entire 2007 diatribe right here.

Lynn seems to have had a change of heart in the past decade about how appropriate it is to criticize the fashion of women in politics.  Yet unfortunately, she seems to not have found a way to an Actual Mirror during that same decade.

Again, this is the woman who is a fashion editor for Vogue.  And who is critical of Melania Trump’s fashion.
