First Lady of France Brigitte Macron Pays Her Respects to Late WWII Veteran in All-Black Attire
French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte Macron attended an honorary ceremony for Daniel Cordier last week; Cordier was a World War II veteran and considered a “Compagnon de la Liberation,” which translates to a “Companion of the Liberation” for his heroic actions during the mid-20th century war. Cordier died on Nov. 20 at his home in Cannes, France, of unspecified causes; he was 100 years old. For the solemn occasion on Nov. 26, Brigitte wore all black to pay homage to the historical hero at the courtyard of the Invalides monument in Paris. Her ensemble included a Louis Vuitton double-breasted peacoat layered over opaque black tights with a coordinating protective face mask.
