Since November, fashion designers have been debating the ubiquitous question: to dress or not to dress future First Lady Melania Trump? Ahead of this Friday's inauguration, it looks like Ralph Lauren has chosen the former.
According to WWD, the American label (Ralph Lauren himself stepped down as CEO in 2015) is reportedly working on a gown and an Inauguration Day look for the First-Lady-to-be. Throughout the presidential election, Lauren was a Hillary Clinton supporter and even designed all the pantsuits worn by the Democratic nominee at the presidential debates (along with many more along the trail).
But unlike some of fashion's other outspoken designers, it looks like Lauren will be putting politics aside and embracing bipartisanship when it comes to dressing Mrs. Trump. If so, the American brand will be the first to dress the new First Lady.
