Melania Trump skips usual suit for leather blazer at UFC Freedom 250 – USA Today
First lady Melania Trump broke from some of her usual fashion choices when she stepped into “the claw” on the White House South Lawn on June 14.
She came in separately from President Donald Trump at the Ultimate Fighting Championship Freedom 250 event. She joins him and the rest of his sprawling family for the show, which also falls on the president’s 80th birthday.
In some ways, the first lady stuck to her common fashion choices for fight night. She wore tall, red-bottomed stilettos. Her outfit was devoid of any other color. But instead of her usual suit, she donned a black, fitted midi dress, a black, leather blazer-style jacket and a choker necklace with a silver cross.
