First lady stuns: I bet designers were wishing they dressed Melania now! January 22, 2017

Ever since Mamie Eisenhower, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History has showcased the First Lady gowns, dresses, and suits from Inauguration Day.

First Lady Melania Trump’s gorgeous outfits will certainly be admired for years to come.  She dazzled in an off-the-shoulder cream gown at the inaugural ball.  Yahoo! News reports on the details:

Her column dress, finished with a sculpted ruffle that cascaded down the front of the gown and cinched at the waist with a red ribbon, won praise for being fresh, modern, elegant and yet understated.

She won rave reviews for her look and originality in choosing Herve Pierre a New York-based designer who last year struck out on his own after working as creative director for famed label Carolina Herrera.

Her pick is likely to boost sales and publicity for the relatively unknown Pierre, much like her predecessor Michelle Obama’s selection of the then relatively unknown Jason Wu in 2009 turned him into a star.
