Don Jr's GF Bettina Anderson's worst fashion fails: From fishnet tights to snakeskin-printed gym wear
WASHINGTON, DC: Since Donald Trump Jr ditched his fiancee Kimberly Guilfoyle for his girlfriend Bettina Anderson, people have been curious about the Florida socialite.
Don Jr himself is the most qualified person to reveal Anderson's real identity. According to the Daily Mail, he believes that Anderson shares a vibe with another former model - his stepmother Melania Trump.
Moreover, Anderson rarely suffers a clear fashion faux pas as compared to Melania. The only valid similarity between Melania and Anderson's styles is their apparent love of expensive designer apparel.
However, Anderson's most notable fashion gaffes throughout the years demonstrate that her wardrobe greatly differs from her beau's stepmother's.
Bettina Anderson went a little too far with fishnet tights
Fishnet tights are a timeless piece that may give the appropriate outfit a dash of edginess but one of Bettina Anderson's worst fashion gaffes answers the question of why people don't usually wear tops made of this material with holes in it.
Anderson was mentioned in an Instagram picture of herself posing with pals back in May 2022. However, her daring, skin-baring top was the only thing in the picture that was worth focusing on.
Anderson's high-neck fishnet tank top didn't reveal everything but that doesn't mean it didn't reveal a little too much. She accessorized the top with a sleek updo, black strappy heels, and a long, beige skirt.
Although the top was balanced with sophisticated styling, it still seemed a little excessive for what appeared to be an upscale afternoon event. This was perhaps a bit excessive for almost anything other than a Friday night viewing of 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.'
Bettina Anderson's perplexing tank top and control top tights combination
The socialite shared a picture of herself posing on a staircase on Instagram in 2020, wearing a pair of black control top tights sans a skirt and a blue tank top in the picture, which is one of her weirdest outfits.
To Anderson's credit, this appears to be a prospective modeling image, so it's conceivable that she did not choose the outfit. However, that does not lessen the look's confusing aspect.
Her styling made the entire look feel even more chaotic and out of place, although it seemed to be lacking a crucial element. She accessorized it with a hair knot and some sparkling jewelry.
The additions just served to compound an already odd appearance, perhaps in an effort to counterbalance the lack of bottoms with some upscale accents, per The List.
Celebrities were wearing tights by themselves for a few years prior to the time this picture was taken. However, it was never a particularly approachable trend and was not an easy one to execute.
Bettina Anderson's headband once completely disrupted her appearance during an event
Bettina Anderson once again displayed how much she enjoys being trendy -- even when the trend doesn't appear very appealing or relevant -- at a David Yurman in-store shopping event for the Paradise Fund in 2014.
She accessorized her simple black short-sleeved dress with black strappy heels. The set gave her a blank canvas for her to accessorize, making it ideal for a David Yurman occasion. However, her choice of jewelry was what ruined the look.
Anderson's head was adorned with a shiny headband, which she didn't appear to be wearing properly. The headband appears to slide up in the back of her head and down too much in the front in every picture of her from the event.
This made the otherwise elegant and simple design seem a little goofy and costume-like, although it might have looked professional with additional gems or even tweaking.
Socialite Bettina Anderson once attempted to jazz up a skimpy bikini
According to reports, Bettina Anderson's reputation as a huge party girl has caused dissatisfaction among Trump Jr's inner circle.
Anderson's photos from the 2012 Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean party certainly appeared to fit that description, where she wore a full makeup application, large, hanging earrings, and a skimpy white one-piece bathing suit.
Even though other models wore white bikinis to the event, Anderson managed to carry off this style in a way that was both stylish and elegant. Her bathing costume was more like fast fashion swimwear, with lots of cutouts.
Her hair and makeup, which appeared to be an attempt to add some sparkle to her beach gear, instead made the entire ensemble look like it belonged at a sorority pool party, which made the situation even worse.
In 2021, Palm Beach Illustrated also published an article about her, calling her a "local influencer," per People.
Bettina Anderson wore snakeskin-printed workout set in 2018
Snakeskin is possibly one of the most difficult animal designs to create, and animal prints are generally not the easiest to create. So, it was probably never a good decision to wear a snakeskin print.
Moreover, Anderson's entire snakeskin exercise outfit from 2018 has to rank among her worst looks.
It's always stylish to work out with a matching set. However, this snakeskin set is downright gaudy. Furthermore, it certainly fails to convey the first lady vibes that Anderson seems to possess, as per Trump Jr.
It goes without saying that athleisure clothing is typically where most people appear their least stylish. However, this specific exercise regimen only demonstrates Anderson's taste for gimmicks and her propensity for gaudy apparel.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Anderson studied at Columbia University and earned a degree in art history, criticism, and conservation in 2009.
She often shares pictures of herself modeling on Instagram, such as the 2020 Quest magazine cover and a photo shoot with Hamilton Jewelers.
