Why Melania Trump’s Inauguration Outfit Feels Familiar

As Donald Trump took his oath as the 47th President of the United States, his wife, Melania Trump, stood by his side, drawing attention with her outfit that felt nostalgically familiar to some.

On this momentous day, the former model Melania selected a custom double-breasted navy coat designed by Adam Lippes, complemented by a specially crafted matching boater hat from Eric Javits.

Her striking ensemble prompted speculation about whether Melania was conveying a messageโ€”that sheโ€™s a woman not to be underestimatedโ€”as her husband re-entered the presidency.

โ€œMakes her look tough. But perhaps thatโ€™s her intention today, all business. Itโ€™s a don’t-mess-with-me look,โ€ someone remarked.

True to form, Melaniaโ€™s wardrobe selection sparked varied opinions. While some admired it, others took a more critical stance, but unanimously, she was the center of attention at St. Johnโ€™s Episcopal Church in Lafayette Square, Washington D.C., for the inauguration.

Social media buzzed with reactions, as one X user pointed out, โ€œI donโ€™t like the hat. You donโ€™t wear a hat in a church. Iโ€™m old-fashioned.โ€

Yet, many applauded the First Ladyโ€™s bold fashion choice.

โ€œMelaniaโ€™s hat! [fire emoji],โ€ praised a user.

Another exclaimed, โ€œMelaniaโ€™s 1920s style Gatsby hat is a smoke show.โ€

Some observers felt her look bore a striking resemblance to a well-known ensemble worn by Beyoncรฉ in her famous โ€˜Formationโ€™ video. They playfully suggested that Melania was entering her โ€˜Lemonade era,โ€™ referencing the singerโ€™s celebrated album.

Quoting the song, one person jested, โ€œOk ladies now letโ€™s get in formation,โ€ while another humorously added, โ€œYALL HATERS CORNY WITH THAT ILLUMINATI MESS.โ€

Other comments included, โ€œNot Melania getting into formation,โ€ and โ€œOk Melania about to get in formation.โ€

Melania, speaking to Fox about her role as First Lady, shared insights into her personal journey, saying, โ€œI feel I was always myself the first time as well, but perhaps people didnโ€™t see me for who I truly am.โ€

โ€œSome people might perceive me as merely the presidentโ€™s wife, but I stand independently, with my own thoughts.โ€

โ€œI have my own views and opinions. I donโ€™t always concur with my husband. And thatโ€™s OK.โ€

She emphasized her duties, stating that her foremost roles are being a mother, a First Lady, and a wife. โ€œAnd once we arrive on Jan. 20, we serve the country,โ€ she concluded.
