Purple dress and bruise: Twitter crushes Irene Montero for her 12-O look

by

Irene Montero has once again been one of the most criticized women on social networks for the look chosen to attend the Hispanic Day parade and the subsequent reception at the Royal Palace. The usual choice of a purple dress, in a clear allusion to feminism, and an obvious bruise near the shin, have been enough to unleash negative comments against the Minister of Equality.

It doesn’t matter how you dress, how you wear or what you say. It is clear that the Minister for Equality, Irene Montero, is going to be the subject of criticism on social networks whatever she does. This has been the case again for her during her institutional public appearance yesterday, October 12. Montero chose for the occasion a purple dress from the firm Bimani, with a “midi” cut, side opening, square neckline and puffed transparent tulle sleeves that costs €189 on the brand’s website.

Montero has chosen the same color as last year on the same national holiday. With purple, the minister intends to vindicate feminism, as she has explained on previous occasions. However, the many haters who try to ridicule her mainly on Twitter, criticize the choice of color and relate it to the corporate of her political party, United We Can, and with the tone of the third stripe typical of the Republican flag.

The person in charge of Equality is not the only politician who has chosen this color for an outstanding institutional act, as other Twitter users have been in charge of remembering. That was the tone of the dress worn by the Popular Party deputy, Cuca Gamarralast May at the gala dinner offered to the Emir of Qatar and Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamaden at the Royal Palace in Madrid.

The spokesperson for the popular group stood out for daring to wear a Cherubina signature dress that was as difficult to wear as it was to look at, with a yoke crowned by a huge shirt collar, two puffed ruffles covering the legs, and sleeves also contrary to discretion.

Purple has been the protagonist of the look of other public figures who have not been so criticized for their daring with color, as is the case of the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton or the very Queen Letizia at different times.

The dress and the chosen color are not the only reasons for chaza about Montero’s physical appearance on the national holiday. The minister has also been beaten for wearing light-colored shoes that through the photographs seemed to have some stains and, above all, for showing a certain size bruise on the lower part of her leg, just the most visible through the dress opening.

To attend these highly visible institutional public events, it is advisable to take great care of both your clothing and your physical appearance in general, if you want to avoid being the object of the worst criticism. The minister’s detractors have pointed to the bruise with sarcasm and have wondered why she had not taken the precaution of covering it up and concealed it.

In any case, it seems that pointing out physical appearance and attire in this type of public act, mainly against women, is always a reason for entertainment, even cruel, on social networks and the media.
