First Lady Melania Trump and Second Lady Karen Pence at Red Cross Headquarters. They both look great and I love Karen's skirt. Looks like she's dropped a few pounds. Not real fond of Melania's shoes ... but the article did make it a point to state that the flats were $50.00.

Humanities, she donned a stunning tux jumpsuit made of black grain de poudre and featuring navy â€œduchess details,â€ as HervÃ© Pierre described.

In posts on Instagram, Pierre thanked Mrs. Trump for wearing the garment and revealed the sketch of the jumpsuit that he personally gifted to the First Lady as a souvenir to remember the look.

Earlier in the evening, Mrs. Trump boarded Air Force One alongside President Trump in a military-inspired black cotton-blend jersey tailored coat by Burberry. Loyal Fashion Notes readers will recall that Mrs. Trump previously wore the coat to this yearâ€™s State of the Union Address.

Mrs. Trump paired the coat with black leather gloves by Bottega Veneta and Gianvito Rossi knee-high leather boots.

Very nice! I love the suit coat with the royal blue contrast against the navy.

Returning to the White House after surprise trip to Delaware. FLOTUS wearing matching navy gloves and boots. So chic looking as usual! President and First Lady's clothing; well coordinated. I love it.

FLOTUS meeting in the UK -- I can only find 'Getty' images, but Melania misses the mark completely and I am so disappointed. The color combination is horrendous!

I'm guessing we won't be finding this color combination in *your* closet ... but watch it turn up in high end stores and sell out quickly.

Here are a couple of videos. This first one answers the question "why does Melania wear sunglasses at night" ... notice how the strobe lights hurt her eyes.

Could have been worse. Purple with yellow arms would border on psychotic.

I think it's fabulous @truth_seeker . I'm hoping Saks can get this into inventory for this winter. If not Saks, I'm going to have to push my way into Bergdorf's against Steve inside holding the door closed.

I want one in red and another in black. (Can't wear mustard or yellow)

Just my $.02

The commentary I heard earlier, was that she looks wonderful anytime.

And that anybody that says otherwise, is out of their mind.

Yup!

Oh heck, purple and gold are the colors of my Alma Mater.

It isn't the same, shade wise, but not so bad. The dress and cape being the same color just makes it look more tent-ish, and I'm not sure how to make it more flattering except to line the cape with a contrasting color.

One outfit out of how many? And it really isn't nearly as bad as the best haute coture the last occupant of her station foisted (with a fawning media) on the fashion world.

Melania looks beautiful in no matter what she wears. She can wear a potato sack and still look good.

She probably doesnâ€™t want to overshadow HRH Queen Elizabeth. Respect that.

Are Melania Trumpâ€™s Pantsuits a Pointed Message for Donald?

Kimberly Truong

19 hrs ago

Melania Trump doesn't often wear pantsuits, but when she does â€” according to a theory from CNN reporter Kate Bennett â€” there's always a good reason.

Bennett, who covers the first lady full time and who has written an unauthorized biography about her titled Free, Melania, has theorized that the FLOTUS wears pantsuits as a subtle message for her husband, Donald Trump.

"Having covered her for as long as I have, each thing she does has meaning to it, even the clothing she wears," Bennett wrote in the book, per the New York Times. "I have a theory that when the Trumps are unhappy with each other, Melania wears menswear â€” because Trump notoriously likes to see women in tight, short, ubersexy and feminine dresses."

The first lady famously wore a white Dior pantsuit to the State of the Union in 2018, which marked her first appearance before the public following the Stormy Daniels scandal.

Melania wore a pantsuit in January in WashDC? In January?

Needless to say (but I will anyway,

), there are plenty of pics in this forum of Melania wearing dresses, skirts, and pantsuits. Ms. Truong is projecting, and not very skillfully or credibly.

That criticism was of the coat that she wore to display the WH Christmas decor.

No, don't like the color combo in the least. The cape would have been much classier and flattering if the sleeves were a royal blue to match POTUS' tie or even a baby blue.
