(65,340 posts)is not well made. I used to have a dressmaking shop, and I would have been ashamed to put my label on such a sloppy, badly designed, and carelessly sewn piece of work!

(5,810 posts)The dress just was not put together well so that there were puckers and ill fitting seams. I thought it was odd for her to come on stage in a dress that showed so many design flaws. It was a lovely dress but the execution of its construction failed miserably if it was supposed to inspire a bunch of women to rush out and buy her merchandise. Did she think we wouldn't notice?

(63,221 posts)Their body language is more like that of a couple than of a father and daughter.
Also, I think all her clothing looks cheap and tacky. I'm not sure if they are all Trump designs, but if they are, no wonder she is losing business.

(9,808 posts)They're three overlapping behaviors common in Narcissistic Parent - Golden Child relationships. Parentification is when a child is expected to assume the role of the adult in the relationship at an early age -- being the emotional or actual caretaker, soothing the narcissist parent's emotions. Adultification is the process of forcing a child to take on adult responsibilities and behaviors early. Emotional incest is when a parent expects the child to fill the emotional needs of a partner rather than of a child (so over-intimacy, emotional support inappropriate to the relationship.)
From what Ivanka has said over the years, I'm confident that all three happened. (Just the conversation about money when she was a tween during the first bankruptcy was over the line.) Golden children have the hardest time breaking the toxic relationship, and while they take on a great deal of insidious abuse, they also have the most rewards for staying. In many ways, it's much easier to be the Scapegoat.
That dress is really badly made. If it had been home-made, we'd call it Becky Home-Ecky. I wouldn't even call it a wearable muslin, but then again, I have standards. /catty

(120 posts)I think what disgusts me the most about the pictures with a young Ivanka is the way they objectify a teenage girl as window dressing, eye-candy, nothing but an object. You can tell from those pictures that he has absolutely no respect for women. And the teenage girl that he is completely objectifying is his own daughter.
