Donald Trump‘s 11-year-old (and extremely sexist) conversation with Billy Bush has been making headlines, but there may be an unexpected silver lining.

During the presidential debate on Sunday night, the internet paid special attention to Trump’s wife, Melania Trump, for one reason: She appears to have been throwing subtle shade at her husband and his “pussy” comment with her blouse.
The blouse in question is a bright pink, silk pussy-bow top (the tie at the top of the blouse resembles the bow tied around a cat’s neck), which is from Gucci and costs a whopping $1,100.

We all know Melania is a former model and knows a thing or two about fashion, but was her choice of top deliberate, or just a brilliant coincidence? Of course we hoped it was deliberate, as did a lot of Twitter users, who took to social media to share their reactions to the choice of blouse.
Just occurred to me… the neckline on Melania Trump’s beautiful outfit – I believe – is called a “pussy bow.” Interesting sartorial choice.

However, it turns out Melania’s choice of fashion was not intended to discredit husband. A rep for Melania told a CBS News reporter that her top “was not intentional.” Even so, it did make for some excellent reactions.
