First Lady Melania Trump wore an all-American ensemble for Monday’s inaugural ceremony, choosing a navy and ivory ensemble by Adam Lippes and a coordinating hat by Eric Javits.

Eric Javits also noted how women in the past wore wide-brimmed hats to set boundaries "so no one would try" to kiss them.

As Women's Wear Daily noted, Melania Trump's outfit is a departure from tradition. She usually prefers European designs for her daily wardrobe. The fashion-focused outlet reported that Melania's personal stylist, Herve Pierre, orchestrated the outfit in collaboration with several U.S.-based designers specifically for the inauguration.

First Lady Melania Trump is wearing a silk wool Adam Lippes coat and skirt with an ivory blouse this morning at the 2025 inauguration, where her husband Donald Trump will become the 47th president of the United States.

While many expected First Lady Melania Trump to rely on her stylist Herve Pierre to help select her 2025 Inaugural Night gown, they might be surprised to learn he designed it.

Melania Trump returned to Washington, D.C., in style this week.

With her eyes almost entirely obscured by the rim of her wool boater-style hat, Melania Trump stood next to president-elect Donald Trump on stage at the inauguration ceremony as he pledged the oath of allegiance.

As the world watches for the transition of power on Inauguration Day, the fashion industry eyes the ensembles of the first ladies.
