In another rare public appearance for former First Lady Melania Trump, who appears to have been staying at the family’s New York City residence in Trump Tower in the weeks following the former president’s shocking conviction on all 34 felony counts brought against him by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, stunned with her tasteful and beautiful outfit.
As background, Melania has not been very present during this election cycle, with Trump saying that she is more of a private person but will do what she can to help the country success. Talking about her private nature and willingness to eschew it for the good of the country, he said, “It’s funny, she was a very successful model, very, very successful, and yet she was a private person. She’s going to be out a lot. Not because she likes doing it, but she likes the results.” Continuing, he added, “She wants to see this country really succeed. She loves the country.”
Continuing, Trump re-emphasized Melania’s essentially private nature compared to other First Ladies. He said, “You know, a lot of first ladies would go out — they want to be everywhere. They get angry at their husband because he’s not introducing them.” He then continued, “If I didn’t introduce Melania, she’d be very happy about it. She’s just a different kind of a person.”
In any case, Melania appears to have headed to NYC for Trump’s trial but remained mostly in private while there, and was only seen on Tuesday, June 3, when she left Trump Tower alongside her towering son Barron and towering piles of luggage. When she left, the New York Post reports, it was the first time she was seen in public since the “hush money” trial, which she has called a “disgrace.”
But it was her outfit that really stunned and turned heads, particularly at the New York Post, which reported that Melania was wearing a “chic gold-brown jumpsuit” and holding onto a “matching purse.” Walking alongside her toward the waiting Secret Service SUV, 18-year-old Barron Trump was wearing a blue suit and white shirt but no tie.
Watch the video the NYT made showing pictures of her here:
Melania was quite successful in turning heads when she entered the venue in a sleek white pantsuit, black shirt, and black heels. Prime Minister Orbán, after she entered, presented her with a bouquet of flowers.
Melania was preceded in entering the venue by former President Donald Trump, her husband. Then, as she entered, Ray Orbison’s famous song “Pretty Woman” played in the background. It was quite an appropriate song choice given Melania’s wonderfully dramatic and beautiful entrance.
