Asked about the valid dress protocol for official receptions, G. Drukteinis said that receptions are of all kinds: dinners, meeting at the airport, formal negotiations, meetings with managers of various ranks, etc., and the requirements of the protocol are very simple:
“In preparation, we show respect to other people, not ourselves. The protocol says that your clothes, accessories, like some badges, should always show respect for the other side sitting in front of you. That makes people look decent. “
According to G. Drukteinis, both the first couple from our country and France complied with the dress requirements of the protocol.

The blue suit indicates a lack of communication between the protocol services.
During the reception in the presidency, the wife of French President Macron, Macron, remained true to her style: she wore a blue dress a little above the knees, although according to the dress protocol it should be longer, and she wore an elegant Knee-length coat and shiny black high-heeled shoes.
The wife of the president of our country G.Nausėdienė D.Nausėdienė wore a slightly different shade, but also a pleated blue dress of medium length, and wore burgundy shoes.

When asked how he valued the image of first ladies, G. Drukteinis said it could be evaluated in two ways.
“One – it shows that both women were wearing clothes that are very fashionable at the moment – blue, which turns blue. This color is fashionable, always very safe and almost always suitable for any woman.
The president of Lithuania, Dalia Grybauskaitė, also liked the color blue. This color is basically suitable for anyone, making it more solid.
On the other hand, it shows the lack of communication between the protocol services, since the services usually coordinate this type of thing and they do it for many reasons ”, commented the interlocutor.
According to the etiquette specialist, in the past, when it came to women’s clothing, there was a requirement to have as little naked body as possible:
“People had a puritan worldview, they lived with very clear moral principles and everything was clear: a long skirt, long sleeves, a country covered with shoulders or a cape, etc.
Now we see that the world is liberalizing, liberating. And if a woman has really beautiful legs or an impressive bust, it is no longer very inappropriate to emphasize that, the etiquette specialist is convinced.
“President Macron’s wife has a beautiful figure, she radiates the elegance of a French woman, and if you emphasize it, she is welcome.”

When asked how he evaluates the image and the chosen clothes of D.Nausėdienė, G.Drukteinis said: “I avoid criticizing him, because it is always easier to criticize, it is much more difficult or even impossible to create something that suits taste and imagination. of all. My personal approach is that I don’t like the way she dresses. But I respect the work of the people who prepare and advise Mr. Nausėdienė. If I advise you, I think there are some objective and subjective reasons for it. “

G.Nausėda’s tie – too bright
When asked about men’s clothing, G.Drukteinis said the requirements for special events: clothing must be a tuxedo, tailcoat or uniform. An unwritten requirement, according to him, that the suit be dark:
“The darker the color, the more formal it is considered, the more formal, black. It is not talked about out loud, but it would seem really strange for a president to wear a yellow suit with blue stripes. So it’s really easier for men, because their clothes don’t have as many variations as, let’s say, women. “

Speaking about the evening dress of President G. Naus vestidoda, G. Drukteinis noted that the tie of the head of the country was too bright.
“It was too bright for the evening event. And a striped tie is not for such formal dinners.
Look at E. Macron’s tie, it was dark, it looked perfectly smooth, because its pattern didn’t stand out at all.

I don’t know what made our president choose such a tie because he is fully working: an employee sitting at his desk. That is what I write to the staff of the President’s Protocol Division, because it is impossible to tie such a tie in the western part. “
Sometimes the combination of a couple’s clothes transcends borders
Looking at the clothes of the first couples, it seems that they are coordinated, some details play with each other, for example, Nausėdai’s day clothes, the color of the president’s tie (burgundy) seems to match the high heels of D.Nausėdienė.
Asked whether the country’s first couple would match their clothes according to protocol, G. Drukteinis said that this could also be commented on in two ways.
“I am of the opinion that the groom does not have to see the bride’s dress before the start of the wedding ceremony, because it is also a pleasant surprise. If a couple knows each other well, they can’t really make extreme, radical, or mood-damaging decisions.
On the other hand, as if you have to combine your clothes to look good in the photos, as a good example of cooperation, coordination for society and the world. But that alignment, as practice shows, often transcends boundaries, and people begin to look like they are in uniform or trying too hard, squeezing.
There is a very old rule in all clothing, best described by Yves Saint Laurent: “The most important thing in any outfit is the person who wears it.” – their eyes, smile, attitude towards the world, posture, behavior, etc. And the color of the belt will match the color of the shoes, so … As James Bond said: “Never trust a perfectly dressed person, because they are probably a scoundrel.”
Why is women’s clothing talked about more often?
When asked why I think so much attention is always paid to women’s clothing and relatively little discussion about men’s, G. Drukteinis said that it is also determined by our nature:
“Men – fighters, hunters, his clothes are always very practical, very light construction, he has many pockets to store necessary items. Note that there are about ten pockets in the attire of a man dressed in a suit. It would be difficult to find Such a feminine outfit.Then it is not interesting to comment on a man’s clothes, because her, a uniform haircut, always a jacket, pants.
And women are butterflies by nature, creations of God that are meant to attract attention. Starting with hairstyles, ending with clothes and accessories. A purple-haired president would look really strange, but a woman wouldn’t look particularly strange in that case. There are more details in women’s clothing that can be taken into account to draw conclusions about that woman’s style, character, mood, state of mind, and worldview. As a result, they are discussed more frequently, ”said the interlocutor.
