(NewsNation) — First lady Melania Trump wore a navy and ivory ensemble by American designer Adam Lippes for today’s inauguration ceremony.
The look included a tailored navy silk wool coat, a navy silk wool pencil skirt and an ivory silk crepe blouse, all designed by Lippes and handsewn in New York City.

As President Donald Trump arrived inside the Capitol Rotunda, he greeted the first lady but could not plant a kiss on her cheek, ostensibly owing to the wide brim of her hat.

“The tradition of the presidential inauguration embodies the beauty of American democracy, and today we had the honor to dress our first lady, Mrs. Melania Trump,” Adam Lippes said in a statement to NewsNation.
“Mrs. Trump’s outfit was created by some of America’s finest craftsmen, and I take great pride in showing such work to the world.”
