Melania Trump wears Dolce & Gabbana black dress for Valentines meal with Donald Trump

Melania Trump stepped out alongside her husband, former President Donald Trump, on Valentine’s Day for a romantic meal. Though she has kept a low profile since she and Donald left The White House in January, she stepped out in a dazzling cocktail dress.

It is speculated to cost roughly $4,000 (£2,854.09).

Commenters applauded her stylish ensemble, describing it as “chic” and “gorgeous”.

One fan of Melania wrote: “I love that dress and, of course, she’s gorgeous like always.”

Another commented: “Melania always wears the dress better.”

The Kimono-style over-coat is estimated to have cost well over $3,000 (£2,329).

However, Dolce & Gabbana is not Melania’s only go-to European designer.

Speaking to Express.co.uk about the former US first lady’s style, Abbey Booth, personal stylist and owner of Stories with Clothes, explained a selection of European designers are among the first lady’s favourites.

She said: “Melania chose to wear a plethora of European designer brands and luxurious accessories and reads like a who’s who of the fashion industry – from Alaia, Alexander McQueen, Burberry, Chloe, Dior, Dolce & Gabbana, Gianvito Rossi, Prada, Roksanda, Victoria Beckham to name a few in addition to her favoured Christian Louboutin heels and the famous Hermes Birkin bags to Hervé Pierre, one of her favourite designers, who also designed her inaugural gown.”
