Antoinette Lattouf Instagram – I knew my appearance would be dissected, analysed, and judged—because that’s what happens when you’re a woman in the public eye. Women who had been down this road before tried to prepare me for what to expect.
‘Look polished, but not too polished.’
‘Be serious, but not too serious—God forbid you look “cold” or “harsh.”’
‘Don’t scrunch your face, don’t let the wind make you squint—that will be weaponised.’
‘Also don’t smile too much, because that will be interpreted as flippancy.’
‘And whatever you do, don’t look too confident… or too uncomfortable. But also don’t look weak and afraid.
OK? Good luck.’
And sure enough, here we are.
For the record, the outfits and accessories I wore were either loaned, borrowed or generously donated by folks in fashion (it also helps to have 4 sisters!)
I was explicit that any GoFundMe money raised is solely for legal fees. The amount raised so far accounts for about a quarter of the cost of this litigation. Not a cent of it has been spent on anything else. The fact otherwise is being implied by some media outlets is pathetic and plain wrong.
Anyway, while you’re here, take a moment to appreciate this wild idea: you can seek justice and dress however you want while doing it. Crazy, huh?
Ps. Shout out to my friend, the exquisite stylist @katherine_rizk for her support and excellent eye.
