Melania Trump goes glam in pink Dior Haute Couture at state dinner

Melania Trump made a fashionable appearance during Tuesday night’s state dinner with King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

The first lady, 56, wore a pale pink silk strapless dress by Christian Dior Haute Couture paired with off-white suede gloves and silk pumps.

She was all smiles as she walked alongside her husband, President Donald Trump, who sported a classic black tuxedo, and the royals.

President Trump’s daughter, Ivanka Trump, shared a photo of her look at the event via Instagram on Tuesday evening.

The first daughter, 44, donned an ethereal sky blue dress with sheer sleeves, crystal embellishments, and a flowing train.

Earlier in the day, Melania wore a white peplum Ralph Lauren skirt suit with a straw boater hat by Eric Javits and white Manolo Blahnick pumps.

Melania and the president welcomed Charles, 77, and Camilla, 78, with handshakes Monday as the royals touched down at the White House. Melania kicked off the visit in a butter yellow skirt suit by American designer Adam Lippes.

Charles and Camilla will be visiting the US until Thursday.

Although the pair has visited the US several times before, this trip marks their first since Charles became king after his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, died in September 2022.

Chef Darren McGrady — who was a personal chef to the late Elizabeth, the late Princess Diana, as well as Diana’s sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, and also cooked for Presidents Ford, Reagan, Clinton and both Presidents Bush — told Fox News Digital that the British royal family can expect “the best of America” to be served at the state dinner.

According to McGrady, Charles would be most impressed by local produce.

“It’s seeing goods coming into season, like asparagus, artichokes, peas, spinach and broccoli,” he shared. “The king would absolutely be thrilled if any of those were on the menu.”

Royal commentator Amanda Matta added that the White House will also keep dietary preferences in mind.

“King Charles doesn’t eat foie gras, for example, and the royals are known to abstain from things like red sauces, garlic, or curry for practical reasons,” Matta noted. “The meal needs to be elegant but not overly complicated, and easy to eat while conversing.”

“That means no handheld dishes, no messy dishes, nothing too experimental and nothing that risks embarrassing guests,” she continued. “But the menu is ultimately the host’s call, making the choices very much a diplomatic flex.”

In September 2025, Melania turned heads in a bold yellow off-the-shoulder Carolina Herrera dress cinched at the waist with a lilac belt, during her visit to the UK with President Trump.

The former model stood out in the bright hue at Windsor Palace, where they dined with Kate Middleton, Prince William, Camilla and King Charles.
