President Donald Trump is joined by his wife, Melania Trump, as they arrive at the Whitehouse before his inauguration, which is later today. Appearing as the vision of sophistication, we’re obsessed with Melania’s chic navy ensemble, perfect for winter fashion inspiration.
As reported by Vogue, Melania is wearing a custom-made coat from designer Adam Lippes. Lippes was also the creative genius behind Princess Eugenie’s Trooping the Colour ensemble from the summer of 2017.
As Melania dons an elegant look from Royal’s designer for this grand occasion, you, unfortunately, can’t shop the exact look as seen on Melania. But don’t fret; we’ve found a similar navy maxi coat from the same designer that you can add to your winter wardrobe – but you’ll need to be quick.

This Adam Lippes Samira coat matches Melania’s look in its sophisticated maxi length, structured silhouette and sharp shoulders. Coming in the same navy colourway, this wool-silk blend coat is perfect for emulating the first lady’s style. It steps away from Melania’s ensemble with silk-trim lapels, which offer a dash of contemporary elegance. This item swaps Melania’s double-breasted style for a more versatile single-breasted fastening.
Still available in US sizes 2 to 14, this piece is selling out fast – so if you want to ensure you secure your size, you’ll need to act fast. The first-lady lookalike is currently retailing for the reduced price of £2999, down from £5999.
If you miss out on grabbing your size before it leaves the virtual shelves, or if you’re keen on sticking to a smaller budget, don’t worry—we’ve got plenty of affordable and similar alternatives for you to check out instead.
For those looking for a dead ringer to Melania’s custom look, check out Karen Millen’s offering: this Premium Italian Manteco Wool Military Double-Breasted Tailored Midaxi Coat in the same navy shade. On sale for £479, this coat is still available in sizes 6 to 14.
This longline coat is made from high-quality, thick Italian wool and set to elevate any look, from casual jeans and a sweater to your Whitehouse-ready formal wear. It boasts a military style and double-breasted buttons to match Melania’s attire. With a statement-flared fit sure to turn heads, no matter the occasion, this is the perfect alternative to Melania’s designer look for those who don’t mind splashing some cash.
If you’re trying to stick to a smaller budget, why not head over to Nobody’s Child? You can currently get your hands on this Oversized Navy Belted Wool Blend Coat, which is not exactly the same as Melania’s but does mirror the same sophisticated style for a much more budget-friendly £210.
Set to be your new go-to winter coat, this coat boasts a notch collar, button fastening and relaxed shape that offers the same versatility and elegance as Melania’s inauguration look. Providing both cosy and cool vibes, this pick matches the designer-made style with a cinched in the middle, thanks to the fabric belt, and promises to keep you warm and stylish through the winter months. I’d move fast, though; this gem is popular for a reason, and it is selling fast.
