SEE – September 1st: The first lady of the United States of America was the subject of mercilessly online mocking.

Melania Trump’s latest outfit may be the most-ridiculed one yet as she was featured while holding a golden shovel and planting a sapling while wearing 4-inch heels which was definitely not the best choice for gardening.

One day ago, she stepped out in a floral Valentino skirt and Christian Louboutin stilettos to plant an Eisenhower-era oak sapling in the White House grounds.

However, it was her shoes that stole the show. According to Alys Fowler, a gardening expert interviewed by the Guardian, heels can sink in the soil and strain your lower back while gardening.

Also severely criticised was the price tag of her outfit. As per reports, the pale pink Louboutins that Melania Trump donned cost a whopping $690. The designer skirt, meanwhile, was a cool $4,000.

This is not the first time that Ms Trump's gardening outfit has been trolled. A 2017 picture of her "gardening" in spotless sneakers, sunglasses, and a $1,300 Balmain shirt inspired hundreds of memes.
