First Lady Melania Trump turned heads in a striking emerald green gown at Tuesday night’s White House dinner hosted by President Donald Trump for Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.

Melania, 55, showcased her fashion credentials in an outfit that fashion experts predict will be on-trend for 2026. Her strapless dress featured ruching details across the bodice and skirt, accentuating her figure. Catching the light beautifully, the glamorous gown balanced timeless elegance with contemporary flair, enhanced by a discreet front slit.

She kept her accessories understated yet luxurious, pairing the dress with diamond earrings and pointed-toe heels. Melania’s beauty look was equally polished, featuring a delicate pink lip and her hair styled in full, flowing waves that added to her sophisticated appearance.

Social media users on X (formerly Twitter) praised Melania’s appearance, with one commenting, “She is simply stunning I can’t even,” while another added, “She’s a stunner.”

Melania, always the picture of elegance, stood by her husband’s side as they welcomed Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince for a formal dinner, marking a significant moment in U.S.-Saudi relations.

Despite often receiving criticism for seemingly supporting her husband’s controversial actions as President, Melania may be subtly challenging his approach in her own unique way.

This theory was sparked by her fashion choices during the opening day of Donald Trump’s state visit to the UK in 2019, where they were received by the late Queen Elizabeth II and the Royal family on British soil.

Melania donned a white $4,400 Gucci midi-dress featuring a London-themed print – a move that fashion experts lauded as a tribute to the capital. However, what intrigued many was her choice of a Gucci piece.

Just days before, the Italian luxury brand had showcased its 2020 cruise collection in Rome, making a powerful pro-choice statement at the event.

Models strutted down the runway with Gucci-branded gags covering their mouths, while another sported a blazer emblazoned with the 70s feminist slogan, “My Body My Choice,” across the back.

Other pieces from the collection boasted a glittery uterus design and included references to the gender equality initiative Chime For Change’s emblem.

Melania Trump’s choice to wear a Gucci ensemble, following the brand’s significant move, could be seen as a silent protest against her husband. This comes after Donald Trump expressed his support for several U.S. states passing laws that severely restrict women’s access to abortion.
