Melania Trump, formerly known as a fashion model, embraced her duties as First Lady after Donald Trump’s election in 2016. The mom-of-one, recently spotted with a bizarre “hole in her head” – was frequently seen gracing high-profile events and working on her “Be Best” campaign during his first term.

Glamhive stylist Naina Singla, operating from Washington DC, identified significant changes in her style over the time. Reflecting on photographs of Melania – alongside Donald from 2014 and 2015, and contrasting them with images from later in Trump’s term, she said: “Melania Trump’s style has evolved a lot since she has become First Lady.”

Highlighting the transformation, she added, “Her style is more refined, elegant, and polished; even though it’s not super conservative, it is more conservative compared to what she wore in years past.”

Singla also delved into Melania’s preferred fashion choices saying: “In terms of colors, Melania loves white and black, monochromes, and vibrant colors.

“She loves wearing sheath dresses and is often seen belting her looks to accentuate her waistline.”

The stylist then considered the adjustments Melania made to her wardrobe since stepping into the limelight as First Lady.

The fashion stylist observed a shift in Melania Trump’s fashion since she became the First Lady, noting: “Melania Trump has toned down her style,” and added, “She used to wear more form fitting dresses, baby doll dresses, plunging necklines, and miniskirts. But now we would not see her wearing such styles.”

The change was elaborated further: “She dropped her hemline since becoming the First Lady and she wears more pants and pant suits. Her look is more polished and professional.”

When addressing Melania’s attitude towards media focus on her fashion rather than her initiatives, the stylist mentioned, “The stylist went on to discuss how Melania has previously hit out at those who have concentrated on her outfit choices, as opposed to her work as First Lady.However, according to Naina, it seems that the First Lady seems to have decided against a way in which she could incorporate her fashion with her role.”

Drawing comparisons with former First Lady Michelle Obama’s approach to fashion, it was highlighted, “In comparison to former First Lady Michelle Obama, who supported less well known designers from diverse backgrounds, Melania’s fashion choices are more expensive and she chooses more established designers like Burberry, Ralph Lauren, and Dior.”

And despite Melania’s wishes, as noted: “Melania has repeatedly stated that she wishes the media would focus less on her outfits and more on the work she is doing.”

Suggestions that Melania could leverage her wardrobe choices were also discussed, “But it could be argued that she could use her fashion choices to her advantage and to promote various causes.”

The update concluded with Melania’s recent appearance: “On Sunday, Melania was spotted returning to the White House with her husband Donald Trump, and their 12 year old son Barron Trump, after spending the weekend at the Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida.”
