The natural (and Italian) elegance of Meloni


Dear Director Feltri, unfortunately, the personal criticisms directed at Mrs. Premier regarding both her physique and her attitudes, as well as her place of origin, are well known. These are judgments to be absolutely avoided (by all parties) so as not to create ground for unpleasant antitheses which will then have nothing to do with actual politics. Therefore, given that I only recognize his ability to play that role (not common to all politicians) and I do not agree with various types of political choices and other things, I can consider myself objective in the particular considerations. Physically he is certainly normal with blond and blue aspects; regarding the height, similarly, no criticism should be made, even considering (at least, subjectively) that she belongs to the type of child woman, from the looks of it. By way of example, a great diva, and reasoning only on height, Muti, if she were tall, paradoxically, would be a diminutio to the aforementioned typology of child woman. Again, regarding the vox, the accent of the original vernacular is undoubtedly pleasant. Likewise, the territorial origin (village) upon closer inspection and comparison (the Parioli, yes, today, with elegant buildings derive from the peraioli who harvested the fruits) is one of the best in Rome also for having all the services within walking distance. Also close to some unicums, such as the Aurelian Walls, bordering the historic centre; longest and best preserved city wall in the world. The Thermae Antoninianae, Baths of Caracalla, thermal complex with large imperial buildings. Simply crossing the Cristoforo Colombo, the Appia Antica, the queen viarum with 2300 years of history which preserves a historical, archaeological and architectural heritage unique in the world. Therefore, the Garbatella district, even with its peculiar architecture and nature, is the most fascinating, particular and evocative; “a small miracle of liveability”.

Luciano Di Camillo

Dear Luciano,
a clear misunderstanding has been created, namely that the Prime Minister, as a woman, must and can be judged for her appearance or her way of dressing. But she does not participate in a beauty contest and does not compete for the title of Miss Elegance. Nor did Italians vote for Giorgia Meloni for aesthetic reasons, for size, for photogenicity. We all talk about feminism, but isn’t the treatment given to our prime minister a form of sexism when we discuss her physical strengths and weaknesses? Have we ever criticized the appearance of Mario Draghi, Giuseppe Conte, Matteo Renzi, Enrico Letta, Paolo Gentiloni or have we perhaps concentrated on their work? Of the first female Prime Minister in Italy we observe the color of her eyes, hair, height, size, accent, as if this could then influence her ability to govern the country, the only relevant element.

I have heard a lot of talk about violence against women in recent days, even inappropriately, in the sense that sometimes we pretend to recognize abuse even where it does not exist, for example in the whistling on the street, which for me, as for many ladies, it remains a harmless appreciation, which we men no longer dare to make so as not to be considered sexual harassers or potential murderers. I, however, see violence in this morbid way of looking at Meloni, of criticizing her as a woman, as a mother, as a partner. An attempt to deny the female her power, a power that she has conquered on her own, working hard, reducing her to the role of a mere body to be examined and evaluated according to specific weight and centimeters. Of Meloni, like all women, we shouldn’t care about the weight but the stature, not the physical height but the moral one. As for the accent and that Romanness that Meloni never wanted to modify, hide, erase, proud as she is of herself, of her values ​​and her identity, I think they have constituted winning characters, which have made Giorgia even more human, leading people to perceive it as the politics next door, not one that stays closed in the buildings or in area C, which ignores the most common problems of the inhabitants of the peninsula.

Giorgia Meloni has a beauty of the soul, as billionaire Elon Musk has also noticed and affirmed, the sum of which is summarized in simplicity. Simplicity in communicating, therefore clarity. Simplicity in dressing, i.e. elegance, in offering oneself to others, in approaching a problem, therefore effectiveness and efficiency. And simplicity also means reliability, or concreteness.

Giorgia Meloni, since she was appointed prime minister, seems to me to have also undergone a process of evolution from an external point of view. Not that before she was less beautiful or didn’t know how to dress, but she has shown that she wants to best represent not only Italians in the world but also Italian style, sober and classy. And he succeeds great.

As for inflection, it would be a tragedy if Meloni were only able to use Roman dialect, however, this lady, who you define as a “child”, although without any denigrating intent, I understand, is capable of speaking perfectly not only her own language mother but also English, Spanish and even French.

We have never had a prime minister so prepared. It is enough to remember Renzi’s English to understand the abyss that exists between Meloni and the others. Yet we focus on bra size.
