Melania Trump’s latest look sparks both applause and backlash

Melania Trump kept a low profile during the early months of Donald Trump’s second term, but lately, she’s been making more public appearances.

And at the recent White House Picnic, it wasn’t Trump who stole the show — it was the First Lady.

With summer just around the corner, First Lady Melania Trump stepped back into the spotlight on June 12 — turning heads as she joined crowds for the 2025 Congressional Picnic. The famously private wife of President Trump surprised many with her appearance, marking one of her rare outings this year.

The 55-year-old former model made a rare appearance on the South Lawn for the annual gathering and was immediately praised by her husband, who told the crowd:

“I want to thank our magnificent First Lady for putting together this wonderful evening.”

Typically known for her private nature and fierce protection of her son Barron’s privacy, Melania was seen smiling in a crisp white blouse and bold floral slacks as she mingled with attendees.

According to USA Today, Melania greeted guests at the event wearing floral cotton jacquard pants by Dolce & Gabbana and pink suede pumps from Manolo Blahnik —an effortlessly chic summer combo that didn’t go unnoticed.

Later that day, she was photographed chatting with people — and the images quickly made the rounds online and sparked a heated social media debate.

Some internet users raved about her fresh appearance, with one writing: “Melania is 100% Class! Trump and Melania are the perfect couple that all lovebirds should emulate.” Another added, “Tonight might have been the best I’ve seen Melania look. Hair was on point. [Her] Dress was simple yet elegant. Smiling as always. 10/10.”

But not everyone was as complimentary.

The phrase “Is That Bruce Jenner?” trended shortly after images from the event were shared. Critics flooded social media, with some suggesting Melania’s new look bore an uncanny resemblance to Caitlyn Jenner, formerly Bruce. “At first glance, thought I saw Caitlyn Jenner…” one Facebook user remarked.
