Trump Returns to White House for Inauguration, Melania's Style in Spotlight

Created: JANUARY 26, 2025

Former First Lady Melania Trump made a stylish appearance alongside President Donald Trump as they attended a prayer service at St. John's Episcopal Church before his second inauguration. Dressed in a sophisticated navy ensemble, complete with a matching coat, hat, and heels, Mrs. Trump's attire was well-suited for the chilly Washington, D.C. weather. The inauguration ceremony itself was moved indoors to the Capitol Rotunda due to the cold temperatures.

President Biden and First Lady Jill Biden welcomed the Trumps at the White House for a traditional pre-inauguration tea and coffee gathering. This marked a significant contrast to Trump's previous inauguration, which Biden did not attend.

Trump is set to be sworn in using both the Bible given to him by his mother and the Lincoln Bible. Melania Trump's fashion choices, particularly her inaugural ball gown designed by Hervé Pierre, have drawn considerable attention throughout Trump's presidency. Pierre, who has styled multiple first ladies, designed the gown currently displayed at the National Museum of American History.
