Melania Trump’s inaugural look was nothing short of a fashion statement, commanding attention with its luxe price tag and sophisticated design.
For her husband’s swearing-in as the 47th President of the United States, she donned a custom navy double-breasted coat by Adam Lippes, paired with a matching boater hat by Eric Javits—two names known for impeccable craftsmanship and elegance.
The coat, priced at over $3,600 for a similar design on Lippes’ website, was custom-made for Melania, with the total cost of her ensemble far surpassing that figure. The striking boater hat, which carries a hefty price tag of over $400, perfectly complemented the tailored perfection of the coat.
Melania’s timeless style choices also included black leather gloves and dark suede pumps, finishing the look with a nod to refined class.
Reactions online were a blend of admiration and critique. Some applauded her confident, businesslike aura, while others were less enthusiastic, with one user commenting, “I adore Melania and I liked the outfit.
Not the hat. It was too much,” and another noting, “Makes her look hard. But maybe that’s what she wants to look like today, all business.” Regardless, Melania’s look undeniably made its mark, reinforcing her reputation for impeccable style with every carefully chosen detail.
