Melania Trump is now being compared to Jackie Kennedy. And they often even claim that she surpassed even Jackie, becoming the most stylish first lady in US history. Let's take a closer look at her images.
I'll start with the most important thing that makes this woman so flawless: she always has a straight back and perfect posture. Melania is a former model, she always knows how to stand out in life or for photography. She always “keeps her face.” And he walks on straight, not bent legs. Many ordinary women underestimate these nuances. But believe me, any designer item will “sag” on a figure with a stooped back. And it’s not the outfits, but primarily the ability to present herself that makes Melania so attractive and bright. 
If we talk about the style itself, Melania’s image has undergone many changes over the years. And this work on myself really turned out to be very productive and successful. Having married such a rich man, Melania initially showed all the signs of style that are characteristic of the class called white trash. But over the years, she got rid of these features in her image and crystallized the style in its purest form. Here are some old photos for you 
Old photographs show everything that was then removed from the wardrobe and appearance:
- an abundance of tanning (although even now Melania’s skin is still quite tanned)
- collected and sprayed hair
- abundance of decorative details on clothes
- brightness and shine, a lot of what can be called “elegant”.
- excessive sexuality (cut-outs, short skirts, etc.)
From bright and cheap sexuality, Melania came to elegance. But even here there was a problem. Mrs. Trump's elegance is too flawless and perfect. She is practically emasculated. Brought to the absolute. Melania seems to have come to us from the TV series Dynasty (not in the style of clothing, but in the spirit of the image). From the series where women even came out to breakfast with diamond earrings, bright tight suits and stiletto heels. And Melania today in her stiletto heels (with an incredibly beautiful arch of the foot, by the way, I always pay attention to this area) looks irrelevant and unnatural. It is this certain “plasticity” of it that gives the external observer that same feeling: “beautiful and stylish, but something is not right.” 
On the one hand, it seems to me that she herself feels it to some extent. Because more and more often I see some details of simplification in her images. Flat shoes, unbuttoned shirts, and so on. She has good hair coloring and tries to make her hairstyle as dynamic as possible. (although this is always ideal dynamism) 
On the other hand, she just can’t refuse tightly closed suits and tightly tightened wide belts. Because these clothes are her protective armor. And she doesn’t hesitate to show it to the world. Melania's style fully reflects her character and inner world. And sometimes this also makes you feel a little uneasy. 
This can be seen very clearly in that famous inauguration suit. Look, the jacket is not just buttoned, its cut is such that it can be wrapped with a large margin. And the collar securely covers the neck with two layers of fabric. Maximum privacy - gloved hands. And these gloves are made of fairly dense material. And the dress itself is a suit with a collar that we would most likely see in a futuristic film about spacesuits on space stations of the future.
Once upon a time I wrote a poem. It is for a completely different reason and about other women...
Beautiful women in dresses
Even when over forty.
Even when the figure
not at all like the model.
Wrap your feet in silk,
step up on heels
sail down the street like a yacht,
so that everyone is stunned.
So that no one understands:
where is she from?
It's not like she's a girl
But there is a twinkle in the eyes.
Maybe he's running from work
Or flying away from a date.
Or maybe she went to see her grandson
Build sand towers.
Or maybe he’s going to see his friends
drink liqueurs late into the night.
Women's gatherings are a break from the hustle and bustle.
They'll stay up past midnight
They will share their grief
happiness, dough recipes,
secrets of beauty.
Woman in a light dress -
Beautiful and young
(even when age
and, for that matter, weight)
As if shouting: look,
this is who I am -
I still enjoy life
and I expect miracles from her.
Woman in a light dress
He tells us: you can
be beautiful every day
and give yourself happiness.
But if anyone knew,
how damn difficult is this:
keep your back straight
and force yourself to live.
But you know, when I looked at the photo of Melania Trump, preparing to write this text, I kept repeating to myself these exact lines:
...if someone outsider knew,
how damn difficult is this:
keep your back straight
and force yourself to live...
The Western press decided to keep silent about Trump’s fashion “prank,” but they found fault with the colorful print on the dress with particular vigor.
Melania Trump met the South Korean delegation in June in a soft cream Roland Mouret dress, which beautifully emphasized her breasts and... lack of underwear.
The Trumps' first international tour was remembered not only for the vibrant diplomatic meetings of world leaders, but also for the stylish images of the first lady of the United States. This Dolce & Gabbana dress is one of them.
Viewers of the second Trump-Clinton political debate in 2016 could not take their eyes off the luxurious Melania Trump in a fuchsia Gucci blouse. And we can guess why.
In 2016, Melania Trump actively supported her husband during the presidential race and helped fight for voter support using proven means - spectacular and partly provocative outfits.
Melania attended the national convention of the US Republican Party in July 2016 with Donald Trump. Photos of the married couple show with the naked eye that the future first lady did not wear a bra under her snow-white Roksanda dress.
Mrs. Trump demonstrated a similar image at the same convention just a few days later.
In 2015, Melania Trump already wore plain coats and trousers with arrows. But now she wears a bra much more often under her favorite things.
A sheath dress, pointed pumps and a Birkin bag are the perfect outfit for business meetings, which Melania Trump demonstrated in 2012. But a true businesswoman would certainly wear a bra or at least special nipple stickers under this dress.
An emerald dress, pointed pumps and a minimum of accessories - Melania Trump still prefers a laconic style. But a bra in this look would clearly be superfluous - it’s difficult to wear it unnoticed under such fabric (pictured: in 2012).
Melania Trump wore this scarlet dress in 2011, complementing it with thin belts and elegant sandals. But I didn’t wear a bra under it. Apparently, to make the image more impressive.
We were very surprised to see Melania Trump in a completely transparent dress. It turns out that in 2005, Trump's wife wore very provocative outfits. I wonder what Donald himself thought about this then, and what his PR team thought about it now?
Even in very minimalistic and discreet dresses, Melania Trump has always managed to look very sexy.

This image of Melania Trump may now seem too frank to some, but in 2005, Trump, choosing such outfits, attracted everyone's attention, which was clearly the intention.
By the way, before her marriage, Melania was not afraid to show off her toned stomach, open cleavage and lack of bras.
It cannot be said that such silk dresses are ideal for Melania (she wore this in 2004), but her breasts look especially impressive in them.
It is a pity that such models have not found a place in the current wardrobe of the First Lady.
Finding openly negative material about Melania Trump’s outfits in the fashion press is an almost impossible task. Her current style does not raise any questions among fashion experts, and fans turn a blind eye even to outfits that are not always appropriate.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Trump, even having received a high status, is in no hurry to forget her favorite “pranks.” No matter what event Melania is preparing for, every now and then she leaves her bra at home and goes to meetings (even official ones) unfettered by any complexes or underwear.
Ralph Lauren was born in 1939 in the Bronx, New York, the son of a Jewish immigrant from Eastern Europe. He began his career as a fashion designer in 1971. Even then, he worked with cashmere, cotton and tweed, creating a full range of women's wardrobes. But success came to the designer from a completely different direction...
In 1974, for the film The Great Gatsby, Lauren designed several men's suits with a natural line of the jacket shoulder. This was a hit in the top ten.
His fashion is for active and sporty people. His style is characterized by elegance and incredible taste. A distinctive feature of Loren's models is sporty chic.
His biography is the living embodiment of the American dream, he built his own fashion empire and became one of the richest people in the USA. Assertiveness and hard work made Ralph Lauren a classic of American fashion.
The secret of the brand's popularity lies in the harmonious combination of respectability, stability and luxury.
Outfit for Melania Trump
The image of the First Lady of America is still actively discussed on the Internet, and the main question that we will try to answer today is how to sew a similar dress and jacket using ready-made Burda patterns.
Costume details
The laconic cut of the ensemble speaks for itself.
The sheath dress, length to the middle of the knees, emphasizes all the advantages of Melania's impeccable figure. A small one-piece stand-up collar with vertical darts is the highlight of this model. There is a classic vent at the back of the dress so that the narrow silhouette does not restrict movement.
A small jacket, slightly reminiscent of a bolero, with an unusual cut deserves special attention. Two-seam raglan sleeves with a straight cut and three-quarter length, oblique wrap-around fronts and a shawl collar that fastens with a button.
I would like to note one very important point. From the photographs it can be assumed that both the dress and the jacket are made of double-layer fabric. That is why the seams look different on the front side, and there is no decorative stitching.
Pattern:
Lace can make any thing luxurious! And our narrow closed dress with a one-piece collar...
There is no need to make any fundamental changes to the model, since the silhouette is almost identical to the original.
The absence of vertical darts on the neckline in the proposed model can be compensated for with a little trick - do it from the wrong side. Carefully sew narrow folds to the desired length, which will imitate vertical darts.
Move the zipper from the shoulder seam to the back seam.
Add a cut or vent.
The jacket assumes a “collective” image from two patterns. Combine a jacket model from and a bolero from.
Pattern:
Raised fabric pattern, wide shawl collar, fastening with large braided buttons and hanging…
If the shawl collar of the jacket is fastened only to the top button, then, as can be seen in the photo, no additional changes will be required.
Instead of a button, use a button or beautiful coat hooks as a fastener.
Opt for soft dress and jacket fabrics that hold their shape well. It can be cashmere, as in the original, wool or mixed fabrics of good quality, jacquard fabrics are also suitable.Photo: Wikipedia (1); Russian Look (3); pinterest.com (2); website

We talk about how the images of Melania Trump changed and why society was divided in opinion regarding the president’s wife: for some, she became the embodiment of taste and beauty, and for others, a symbol of her husband’s sexist views and outdated social norms.
Grade
In the 90s and early 2000s, the now 46-year-old first lady of the United States Melania Trump, and then a model and daughter of an Eastern European communist, Melania Knauss, was known as an excellent sex bomb, appearing nude in magazines, including men's magazines. She starred for Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Vanity Fair, GQ and other publications, and outside the frame she demonstrated the typical - for the era, and not for herself - glamorous and sexy style: mini, sequins, stiletto sandals, decorated with rhinestones, a lot of silicone, a lot of naked body, natural furs and floor-length sable coats thrown over an evening dress (with sandals, of course), a tan, Chanel handbags, status trinkets and other manifestations of luxury and beautiful life, typical, we repeat, on the one hand - for the era, with another for Melania's environment and Trump's model-lover, and the third for the taste of their future electorate. Rich, high-status, expensive, sexy, faceless and completely unrecognizable - this is how you can describe Melania’s then-not-Trump style.
In 2005, Melania married Trump, becoming his third wife, and their wedding became one of the most expensive and luxurious celebrations of the decade and was officially included in the ranking of the ten largest weddings in the world. Melania Trump's wedding dress was created by John Galliano himself, who was then working for Dior - they say it cost more than 200 thousand dollars, although Melania herself claims that it was “only” 100 thousand. More than 100 meters of white satin, 1,500 rhinestones and natural pearls and 550 hours of manual labor went into the dress. The length of the veil's train was five meters! Not surprisingly, Melania wore a different outfit after the ceremony - a more comfortable and discreet knee-length Vera Wang wedding dress. After marriage, her style remained the same frank and glamorous, but there were more furs and expensive evening dresses - as well as reasons to walk on the red carpet with her millionaire husband.

But as soon as the White House loomed on the horizon last year, Trump’s team took on Melania under the strict supervision of the President’s adviser. However, the “strict supervision” turned out to be not so irreconcilable, since Melania Kellyanne, who herself loves bright and controversial outfits, did not fundamentally change the style and manner of dressing. Of course, Mrs. Trump's style has become more restrained and elegant, the details have become more thoughtful and strict, but the essence remains the same. The tan is a little lighter, the nails are a little shorter, but the slits and heels are still a little higher than necessary; the neckline was covered, but under the thin blouse we still see the outlines of plastic breasts and - oh God - the shamelessly protruding nipples of the first lady.

MELANIA TRUMP
However, most of Melania’s appearances during Trump’s election campaign can with a clear conscience be called excellent, ideal, beautiful - but certainly not stylish. Seriousness, a calmer femininity, nobility and even breed appeared (no, did you see her ankles?), but not style. Why? Yes, because, looking at Melania,we cannot say anything about her as a person. Is she smart? Must not be stupid- knows five languages, but is she smart? Does she have an opinion? What does she think about this or that? What social problems concern her - and do they care at all? But a lot instantly becomes clear about her social class, environment and surroundings: habits, tastes, ideas about luxury, status and status and, of course, success.
After numerous spectacular, successful and not-so-successful appearances by the future first lady during Trump’s election campaign in 2016 (let us recall that after the publication of Trump’s scandalous recording, where he was gathering someone« take it by the crotch,” i.e. for that same pussy, Melania appeared in public in a hot pink Gucci blouse under the frivolous name pussy bow - “kitten tail”), little surprised us. Firstly, the image, as the Western media successfully noted, was completely copied from a similar appearance by Jacqueline Kennedy in 1961 (and other outfits of the recognized ) and, secondly, this is exactly what was expected of Melania - a typical “public” outfit of a typical beautiful wife of a “white Anglo-Saxon” millionaire from the Upper East Side.

MELANIA TRUMP IN GUCCI PUSSY BOW BLOUSE
When talking about the style and image of Melania Trump, it is impossible not to compare her with, who, perhaps, without naturally possessing the ability to effectively present her appearance, and never claiming any special external data, nevertheless managed to do so so that she and her style will be respected all over the world.
While the suit of her husband, Donald Trump, has remained unchanged over the years - a black two-piece with a white shirt and a red tie - the color of the Republican Party (Trump himself says about himself: “My beauty lies in the fact that I have a lot money"), Melania Trump's style paradoxically rhymes with the ideas and mentality of post-Soviet women, which explains Melania's popularity in the former USSR - and this at a time when in the United States her rating, like Trump's rating, is the lowest in history on the moment of inauguration, that is, even before the president makes any decisions. Our people are accustomed to the fact that a woman should be - what? That's right, beautiful. And what does it mean to be beautiful? That's right - dressed up and ostentatiously sexy, a product with a face, so to speak: because there are fewer men than women (and very few suitable for marriage), because a patriarchal society, in which the more noticeable a woman is in appearance, the more chances she has to get a good job, because, in the end, our grandmothers and even mothers (even those in their early forties) lived like this, and THEIR mothers, and in the 80s, made careers, armed with songs and the example of Margaret Thatcher in a blouse with a bow on neck - an analogue of a men's tie for working women. Of course, all these are rather exaggerated stereotypes, but they, nevertheless, at least in general terms explain the situation, showing why in the eyes of post-Soviet women, and many men too, Melania looks ideal, literally - worthy of imitation, a symbol of female success. Many argue like this: beautiful, slim, looks young, husband is a millionaire, knows five languages, has reached the top - what else is needed? But this sounds approximately the same as describing the merits of a live product at a brides fair. It was precisely according to these criteria that wealthy grooms, old or not, chose their wives: so that she would not disgrace herself in society, so that she would illuminate the living room with a radiant smile of porcelain teeth, so that she could entertain her with a casual conversation in moments of rest, embroidered, played the piano - and did not shine . After all, in the end, all these talents were needed in order to the man was pleased with the purchase, and gave bonuses not for the free choice of a woman in her life, but for the most good luck selling yourself on the marriage market.
