Melania Trump’s choice for the day’s events seemed to reference Jackie Kennedy.

The suspense surrounding what the incoming first lady would wear
for the events of Inauguration Day built over the last several months
as several designers spoke out saying they wouldn’t be willing to dress
Mrs. Trump.

The first daughters both chose white for the swearing in
ceremony. Ivanka Trump chose an asymmetrical Oscar de la Renta white
jacket and tailored white pants with black pumps. She accessorized the
outfit with a small a American flag pin and black leather gloves. It was
her third ensemble from the designer in the past two days.

Prior to the inauguration, Trump wore a black military-inspired
coat from New York-based designer Norisol Ferrari for Thursday’s events.

President Trump’s daughter Ivanka is also known for her elegant
style and even launched her own fashion line. Just last week, the first
daughter announced on Facebook
that she would be taking a leave of absence from both the Trump
Organization and her clothing label during her father’s time in office.

Ivanka stood out at the events on Thursday in a striking green Oscar de la Renta dress and matching coat.
