Just days before returning to the White House as First Lady, Melania Trump turned heads with the unique outfit she chose to wear at former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral.
The funeral brought together several former presidents, including Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden were also in attendance, as expected.
Donald and Melania Trump were present at the official state funeral held last week at the Washington National Cathedral.
Melania’s outfit quickly became a hot topic on social media, sparking debate—something that’s far from new when it comes to her fashion choices.
Melania stepped out in a black Valentino trench coat, but it was the unique Peter Pan-style collar featuring a “rose-kiss” print of a 19th-century sculpture by Auguste Rodin that really turned heads.
According to Women’s Wear Daily, this design was part of Valentino’s fall 2019 collection, appearing across multiple pieces.
While some praised her look, others didn’t hold back their criticism.
“I’m glad Melania finally chose an appropriate black dress for a funeral,” one person remarked.
Another quipped, “She just got off the Mayflower,” while some even likened her outfit to that of a “pilgrim.”
