President-elect Donald Trump has delegated the task of selecting the perfect inauguration outfits to his family, with Lara Trump leading the charge. In an exclusive interview with The Post, Lara shared insights into her fashion choices for the upcoming event, emphasizing a balance between patriotism and elegance.
Fashion Choices Reflecting Patriotism and Elegance
Lara, 42, revealed that she carefully considered the colors of the American flag while choosing her attire for the inauguration. Striving for a patriotic but not overly flashy look, Lara expressed confidence in achieving the perfect balance. She will be wearing a gown by renowned Cuban-born, Miami-based designer Oscar Garcia-Lopez for the three inauguration balls she plans to attend. Additionally, for Sunday’s candlelight dinner with donors, she opted for a dress by Italian designer Chiara Boni, who also designed a gown for her in 2017.
Personal Touch and Family Dynamics
Despite being part of a high-profile family, Lara shared a glimpse into her personal life, mentioning that her husband, Eric Trump, did not influence her sartorial decisions. She humorously noted that Eric might not even realize the effort she puts into choosing her outfits, as she trusts her judgment implicitly. Lara also mentioned that she has assisted Eric with his attire, highlighting the supportive dynamic in their relationship.
Family Excitement and Grandfather’s Big Day
As a mother of two, Lara expressed delight in dressing her children, Luke, 7, and Carolina, 6, for the historic occasion, sharing that this experience is new for her since she was pregnant during the 2017 inauguration. The children, described as “very excited” about their grandfather’s big day, have been eagerly anticipating the celebration. Despite speculations about color coordination within the family, Lara revealed that no discussions have taken place, hinting at a surprise element for the event.
In the midst of preparations for the presidential inauguration, Lara Trump’s personal anecdotes and insights provide a refreshing perspective on the otherwise formal affair. Her blend of patriotism, elegance, and family dynamics adds a human touch to the grand event, offering a glimpse into the personal side of the Trump family as they gear up for the historic day.
