When it came to her inauguration outfit, First Lady Melania Trump looked to another first lady for inspiration: Jackie Kennedy. Like President John F. Kennedy’s wife, the former model stepped out for her husband’s festivities on Friday, January 20 sporting a pale blue ensemble.
Melania turned to American designer Ralph Lauren to create her official first look as first lady of the United States. A spokeswoman for President Donald Trump’s wife confirmed the news to Women’s Wear Daily.
