Melania Trump dazzled in a $4,000 red Valentino dress on Monday night when she hosted a political fundraiser in New York while Donald Trump continues to lay low after his debate with Joe Biden.
The former first lady stunned in the sheath dress and red patent leather So Kate Christian Louboutin pumps, as seen in exclusive photos from Dailymail.com.
It was a rare appearance by Melania, coming as she hosted an intimate group at Trump Tower to raise money for the Log Cabin Republicans, the largest conservative LGBTQ+ organization.
Her hard to miss appearance came as her husband stayed behind closed doors in the aftermath of the first presidential debate, where Joe Biden bombed so badly many Democrats called on him to exit from the race.
The former president did call in to Fox News' Sean Hannity on Monday night. And he's been active on his Truth Social account. Tuesday evening he will hold a rally at Trump Doral, his Miami golf club.
Melania, meanwhile, was in New York to hold her second fundraiser of the year for Log Cabin Republicans.
She opened up the Trumps' private penthouse for the event. Their home takes up three floors of Trump Tower.
Guests including former Trump White House official Kellyanne Conway, former Senator Kelly Loeffler and her husband Jeff Sprecher, businessman Bryan Eure and his husband Bill White, former acting director of U.S. National Intelligence Richard Grenell, and philanthropists Nazee and Joseph Moinian.
The event raised $1.4 million, Grenell announced on X.
'.@MelaniaTrump opened her NYC Penthouse tonight to raise money for @LogCabinGOP. It’s the first campaign event ever held at the Trump residence. And we raised $1.4 million in one night. Our goal is to get 50% of the gay vote for Donald Trump,' Grenell wrote.
Charles Moran, the head of the group, called the evening an 'amazingly spectacular event.'
