Considering the fact she’s a former model to the high-end designer outfits she regularly steps out, it may come as no surprise that Melania Trump’s style is studied in close detail. Having kept a relatively low profile during the recent government shutdown, the US First Lady has been spotted at a number of public engagements recently. Last week, the 48-year-old wore British designers for two of her outings. The first was during the State of the Union, held by Donald Trump.

The mother-of-one wore a Burberry coat, which is worth £1,490. The British fashion house was founded in Basingstoke, back in 1856 - and its headquarters is now based in London. In an unusual style, the First Lady wore just one glove, on her left hand. Melania’s stylist later shed some light on the thoughts behind her look. Hervé Pierre told Yahoo!: “As long as I find the right outfit, the designer is almost irrelevant. “The designer, well, is Burberry, but it could have been anybody else. It has nothing to do with England or Brexit.” Melania Trump news: The US First Lady has worn Burberry and Victoria Beckham recently (Image: GETTY • AFP) It is unclear whether Melania is making a political statement on this occasion Dominique St. John, fashion PR Days later, Melania stepped out in a denim military-style jacket.

So, could her decision to wear British designers be a subtle way of sending a message? It’s not the first time she has used her style to send a political statement, fashion PR Dominique St. John explained. She told Express.co.uk: “It is unclear whether Melania is making a political statement on this occasion.
