Melania Trump Wears a Dramatic Fuchsia Cocktail Dress With an Unexpected Twist at the Republican National Convention
For the third evening of the Republican National Convention, Melania Trump pulled out all stops with a very modern cocktail ensemble.
The American first lady stole the show in a vibrate fuchsia concoction.
The dress by Taiwanese-Canadian designer Jason Wu dress featured a full skirt that fell mid calf and a ruched waist cinched with a black velvet tie. In an unexpected twist, it fell to each side instead of meeting in the middle.
But while this sort of affair can often look too Shirley Temple by far, the frock in question succeeded due to its unexpected, non-traditional finish.
The elasticated waist and the fact that the tie stopped just short of a bow gave it a fresh, contemporary and age appropriate air.
The first lady accessorized with black velvet pumps by Manolo Blahnik which matched the belt. The two black accents also helped keep the look balanced and grounded.
Melania Trump joined President Trump, Vice President Mike Pence, and second lady Karen Pence on stage in Baltimore, Maryland.
The previous day the first lady embraced an altogether different look. She wore a military-inspired outfit with khaki blazer and matching skirt. The jacket comes from Alexander McQueen and costs $2,450.
When it comes to shoes, the former model is also a fan Christian Louboutin. She has pairs in various shades and patterns, often teaming looks in monochromatic style from head to toe.
The four-night event concludes today, Thursday with remarks from Ivanka Trump.
