Styled by her longtime fashion adviser Herve Pierre, Melania Trump’s tailored look featured a peak-lapel blazer with silver buttons and a coordinating pinstriped skirt. 



 

The blazer retails at $2,490 and the matching skirt at $1,190. Adding to the ensemble’s sharp silhouette were a pair of Christian Louboutin stilettos in a striking white and blue pattern previously worn by the first lady in April 2018 during a White House appearance, reported by Breitbart.

The parade, equal parts spectacle and symbolism, celebrated a quarter-millennium of US Army history, beginning with its founding on June 14, 1775. The event also doubled as a public celebration of Donald Trump’s birthday, bringing thousands to the capital and featuring a show of military force. 



 

The president emerged from the White House with Melania at his side, clutching a black leather folder bearing the presidential seal. They were joined by family members and dignitaries as they made their way to the National Mall.
