Not many flags make for stylish outfits.
Now that’s some international diplomacy.
As I remember she wore it to the state opening of parliament just after the Brexit vote.
I don’t see what you’re talking about
I feel like many of the horizontally-striped ones would make good T-shirts at least. Not necessarily stylish, of course, but nothing egregious.
Depends in the targeted level of abstraction. If you want to be able to fly your outfit from the flag pole, yeah, not a lot of flags can be styled as outfits, because most flags are stripes and (heraldic) ordinaries. However, if you’re satisfied with matching colours, the fashion world is open to you. And there’s a lot in between.
Just the colors is cheating. You could fly this woman and it would still be 80% to spec!
Now I feel challenged. What about a black suit with a golden yellow shirt and a red tie for Belgium or red shirt with golden tie for Germany? Would that be representative enough? What about a red dress and a green cape over the right shoulder fixed with a golden brouche, would that be Portugal enough? For UK I think of a blue suit jacket with red and white striped lapels.
There’s no way you can pull off a stylish Union jack outfit.
Fair enough.
Spice Girls, about 1997ish?
Put it on a kilt. Just don’t tell the Scots
blue suit, white shirt, red tie with single white stripe
If it’s just about wearing the colors, that’s trivial
it’s at least gotta be evocative
We should try it just to be sure
The missing button is the U.K.
We never wanted to leave it was a shit show even employers sending out emails to their staff how it would benefit them. The whole Scottish independence vote like a year or two before they would have voted otherwise if they knew what was coming. The farmers here in Wales or most of them through their magazines all jumped on the leave band-wagon… oh no more subsidies to re-wild or planting work. Oh shame about that huh! Literally paid to do nothing.
I’ll never forget how I felt that morning I woke up and found out how the vote had gone.
Gone in the favour of the few because they know European regulations would give workers Rights! … Can’t have that! But then they get so big they ship everything out of the country anyway look at Dyson. Why would you be born in a country, work in it, develop your product only to off-shore it. You never cared about anything but yourself and bottom line!
It’s under the flap but ok
Damn, that jacket is stately. I’d follow just the jacket into war.
In this picture she looks exactly like Prince Charming from Shrek.
Looking sharp!
Paid for by Albert Bourla
Could you please explain what mean with that? Why would the CEO of Pfizer have paid for that?
EDIT 2025-03-26: Bloomcole was referring to the following: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pfizergate. It refers to when von der Leyen directly negotiated a big contract with the CEO of Pfizer with very little transparency and later refused to share any information about it.
Nobody embodies the EU’s elite-driven nature better than its incumbent president, Ursula von der Leyen. And no action of hers embodies its warped excesses better than her decision, in April 2021, to single-handedly sign off on a €35-billion deal for the purchase of 1.8 billion doses of the BioNTech/Pfizer vaccine. According to one analysis, the price per dose she agreed was 15 times higher than the cost of production — meaning that the EU overpaid the vaccines by tens of billions of euros. Adding fuel to the fire, the New York Times later reported that von der Leyen had personally negotiated the deal via a series of text messages and calls with Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.
