Melania Trump’s recent fashion choice has drawn criticism. At the 2025 White House turkey pardoning event, the First Lady paired a stylish outfit with a jacket that clashed significantly. Her ensemble featured a brown knee-length skirt, a black turtleneck sweater, and a bomber jacket that was a darker shade of brown than the skirt. Although the neutral tones of her attire were suitable for the occasion, the bomber jacket seemed more appropriate for a trendy setting. Melania appeared particularly out of sync next to President Donald Trump, who complemented the event with a classic all-black suit and a red tie.

Melania has previously faced scrutiny for her fashion choices, including the controversial “I really don’t care, do u?” jacket she wore in 2018 during a time of intense criticism regarding the Trump administration’s treatment of immigrant children. While that jacket cost $39, her turkey pardoning outfit was significantly pricier, with the mismatched bomber jacket from Anine Bing retailing at around $400. It remains unclear whether Melania purchased the jacket herself or received it as a promotional item, but it may have been better suited for another occasion.
