Trump’s inauguration was as much a fashion showcase as it was a political event, with a range of stylish successes and notable missteps.
Best Dressed Highlights
- Melania Trump: In a navy blue ensemble by Adam Lippes, paired with a white-trimmed hat by Eric Javits, Melania’s sophisticated look was complemented by black leather gloves and diamond earrings.
- Jill Biden: Dr. Jill Biden’s Ralph Lauren purple wrap coat, matched with a dress and suede heels, made a bold statement of unity with its vibrant hue.
- Tiffany Trump: Tiffany wore a black velvet coat with a floor-length skirt, modernized by high-heeled Christian Louboutin boots.
- Hillary Clinton: Hillary Clinton’s navy wool dress, paired with subtle stud earrings and a polished look, exuded timeless elegance alongside Bill Clinton in a coordinating navy suit.
- Kristi Noem: Governor Noem’s light blue dress with a detailed neckline offered a stylish homage to Melania Trump’s 2016 inauguration attire.
- Carrie Underwood: During her performance, Carrie wore a silver, sleeveless gown with Hollywood waves and diamond earrings that sparkled under the stage lights.
Worst Dressed Overview
- Lauren Sánchez: A winter-white blazer that was too tight led to an unintended reveal of her lacy white bra, turning her appearance with Jeff Bezos into a fashion talking point for the wrong reasons.
- John Fetterman: Senator Fetterman’s casual gray shorts, hoodie, and sneakers were a stark contrast to the formality of the event.
- Priscilla Chan: Mark Zuckerberg’s wife, Priscilla, wore a conservative pale blue wool set with a classic pearl necklace, a more subdued choice than expected for such a high-profile occasion.
