The navy blue wool and silk coat

At the inauguration of the 47th US President Donald Trump on January 20, the public's attention could not fail to be drawn to the outfit of the new first lady, 54-year-old Melania Trump. The boater-style hat has already become the basis for memes, and the overall severe look was strikingly different from the soft blue Ralph Lauren outfit in the style of Jackie Kennedy, which Melania Trump chose for her husband's first inauguration.

Melania Trump's inauguration outfit was made in the style of her favorite European fashion houses. A pencil skirt, a fitted double-breasted coat, a silk blouse, and a dark blue color made one think of Dior and Dolce&Gabbana. However, the outfit was created by little-known American designers. And this time, especially for Donald Trump's wife. If in 2017, American rcs database designers one after another declared that they would not dress the first lady, and she bought the inauguration suit from Ralph Lauren herself, then in 2025, the hat and suit were created especially for Melania Trump.

Pencil skirt in the same material and a hand-sewn wrap-around silk blouse were all by New York designer Adam Lipps, who has previously dressed Jill Biden, Kamala Harris and Michelle Obama.

Lipps, known for his long-standing collaboration with Oscar de la Renta, said in a statement to the press:

"The presidential inauguration tradition embodies the beauty of American democracy, and today we are honored to dress the First Lady, Mrs. Melania Trump. Mrs. Trump's gown was created by some of America's finest craftsmen, and I am proud to share this work with the world."
The first lady wore a hat to the presidential inauguration for the first time since 1993, when Hillary Clinton appeared at the ceremony wearing a hat. True, the face of the president's wife was not half hidden - but Melania Trump's boater hat did not allow one to see the expression in her eyes.
