See Why Melania Trump’s White Hat Went Viral
Yesterday, French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron paid a visit to the White House, but at the traditional state arrival ceremony, Melania Trump stole the spotlight because of her oversized, wide-brim hat.
As Melania officially welcomed the Macrons to the White House alongside her husband, President Donald Trump on Tuesday morning, the First Lady was unmissable in what is reportedly a $2,195 Michael Kors collection crepe blazer and skirt suit which she paired with a matching Hervé Pierre wide-brimmed hat. Pierre has acted as a personal stylist for the first lady in the past; he designed her inaugural gown.
Unsurprisingly, the white hat caught the Internet’s eye, and Twitter users are comparing it to Beyonce‘s black ensemble she wore in Formation video, as well as one of Olivia Pope‘s all-white look in the TV series Scandal.
