Brigitte’s ‘navy’ look with a nod to France on Macron’s big day

Emmanuel Macron has been re-elected as French president after easily beating far-right Marine Le Pen in the second round of the presidential election. The centrist party has won 58.55% of the vote, at the expense of the far right’s 41.45%. All this in elections that will go down in history for leaving behind a 28% abstention rate, the highest in France in more than 50 years. Data that perfectly reflects the existing social fragmentation in the neighboring country. Macron has again emerged victorious after a deal that had the country and Europe on edge; and in which the French first lady managed to monopolize the spotlight thanks to a spectacular navy look†

With this victory, Macron guarantees his presence at the Elysée for another five years, and becomes part of the condensed history of French presidents who managed to be re-elected. A legislature in which Macron will face widespread discontent that breathes in a France that seems more fragmented every day. Despite Le Pen achieving her best historic result, the so-called ‘Republican shield’ has once again gained the upper hand over the far right, which will continue to act as the visible head of the opposition. A gesture the president did not want to miss: “I know that many of our compatriots voted for me, not to support my ideas, but to put up a barrier to those of the far right. I want to thank you and say that I am confident that this vote will mobilize in the years to come. I am the repository of the sense of duty, of the Republic and of the differences expressed in recent weeks,” he said after announcing his victory.

At the age of 44, Emmanuel Macron writes a new page in his history as French head of state, and becomes part of the select club of presidents re-elected in France† A group composed of great figures such as Charles de Gaulle, François Mitterrand or Jacques Chirac; and which Macron now joins, who after more than 20 years has managed to win re-elections in France. The centrist leader wanted to take advantage of his moment of glory to address all those French who decided to vote for the party led by Marine Le Pen: “The anger and dissension that has prompted people to vote for the far right will have an answer find .” A sentence by which the French president announced that he intends to give the necessary explanations to those compatriots who have used the ‘punishment vote’ to show their displeasure with the government; what the far right has made in France has gained momentum. For them has promised “a renewed mandate”unlike the one who has managed to drive the French to despair in these five years.

This new victory for President Macron automatically makes his wife, Brigitte Macron, first lady of France for the second time. The former teacher will enjoy five more years of lawmaking with her husband at the Elysée Palace in Paris. The first lady once again stood out for her discretion, and unconsciously would become one of the protagonists of this re-election from her husband. Brigitte accompanied her husband at all times during the closing of his victory speech and left signs of his great taste when choosing styling. For this occasion, the French first lady chose a conservative look, according to current fashion canons. Brigitte Macron wore a skinny pants without pockets which he combined with some elegant navy blue pointed toe stilettos†

As top he chose a style blazer century† A jacket with which he wanted to imitate the employees of the French navy and with which he managed to emphasize his presence on stage. Is about a style with which the first lady wanted to wink at the French: the color chosen was French blue, matching her husband’s suit. A look in the purest military style designed by Louis Vuitton, one of his favorite companies. As her only accessory she chose a pair of diamond earrings that looked perfect thanks to a simple updo, for which she used a luxurious pearl pin.

To know the details of the curious love story between the president and the French first lady, you have to go back more than twenty-five years. Emmanuel and Brigitte they met when the current president was only 16 years old and studied in Amiens. A time when the first lady was married and her teacher. They met in the early 1990s, when he was just a high school student. She was 40 years old, had three children, was married and was their history teacher.† Both belonged to the elite of the local bourgeoisie of Amiens (he was the son of a family of doctors and she came from a chocolate family). In spite of the numerous initial problemsOver the years they have proven to be a very solid couple. Due to their age difference of more than 24 years, the couple has a large number of family and social prejudice† They got married in 2007 and since then; In addition to her great love, Brigitte is a great professional support for the president† Since her arrival as President of France in 2017, Brigitte enjoys a privileged place next to her husband. Since then, he has been part of his team of collaborators, taking over the agenda and correcting his speeches. And it is that it seems clear that the French president does not make any decision without first consulting his first lady.
