Usha Vance looked quite stunning today at the inauguration as well.

Make Hats Great Again

Ivanka looked stunning with her matching hat.  Hats may now start to come back -- (perhaps hat will become a status symbol now)

I  know, but she continues to wear them ... and I am so looking forward to seeing her shoes again ..... I'd love to be able  to just see the shoes in her closet(s).

Usha has a very beautiful and welcoming smile and she has an air of 'grace' about her. Perhaps in the future we may need a SECOND Lady Fashion thread?

The real reason Melania Trump wore THAT inauguration hat, its extraordinary backstory and why fashion insiders were left gasping, revealed by JANE TIPPETT

By JANE MARGUERITE TIPPETT

Published: 15:54 EST, 20 January 2025 | Updated: 16:55 EST, 20 January 2025

The powder-blue, pale suit dress that Melania Trump wore for her husband's first inauguration – a custom design by Ralph Lauren – drew immediate comparisons to Jackie Kennedy.

Her hair, swept up loosely into a decidedly 1960s chignon, framed a smiling face as she evoked, through fashion, a golden age of political idealism.

This time round, things were decidedly more nuanced.

Opting for a more somber note, Melania cloaked herself in a custom navy silk wool coat dress – coordinating pencil skirt and ivory silk crepe blouse – all of which, to the surprise of many fashion watchers, had been hand sewn in New York City by the niche, but far from cut-price, American designer Adam Lippes.

Melania's boater – by another American designer, Eric Javits – completed the striking ensemble.

Not since Hilary Clinton, in 1993, has a First Lady opted for an inauguration-day hat, adding not only a touch of the theatrical to Melania's ensemble but almost entirely obscuring her eyes.

For a woman known for her love of sunglasses, perhaps this was the next-best choice on a day when the entire world would be watching her.

Looks like her outfit today is somewhat symbolic of V for Vendetta.

Although I'm sure it was just a fashion statement...I got a kick out of it. All she needed was a tommy gun to complete her ensemble. :rolling:

For raiding her home and rummaging through her lingerie? I should hope so!

oh that color is gorgeous.

I do like those museum exhibits when they show off old women's clothing. I know the Smithsonian has one of former First Ladies dresses, and there is one in the British Museum of dresses worn to Queen Victoria's coronation that were amazing.

I enjoyed the Smithsonian exhibit of the First Ladies' gowns. It's been so long - I really need a return visit.

Both Mrs Vance and Melania look beautiful today. But I LOVED the pale blue dress Melania wore at the first inauguration best. It was stunning.

With her hat today, it was as though she was going to demand the Bidens and Clintons apologize to her mule.

Excerpt:
The nation was captivated tonight as President Donald J. Trump and First Lady Melania Trump took center stage at the Inaugural Ball, showcasing their grace and elegance during their first dance as the 47th President and First Lady of the United States.

Melania Trump, widely regarded as one of the most fashionable First Ladies in American history, dazzled onlookers with her choice of attire.




What a magical moment! President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump shared a breathtaking first dance at the Liberty Inaugural Ball. Melania stunned in a gorgeous white satin gown, while President Trump looked dashing in a classic black tuxedo.

I stayed up to see Melania and Usha arrive at the military ball. They both looked great - dresses were very flattering.

Usha was a very pleasant surprise this weekend. She was poised and expertly dressed.  Well done!
