Melania Trump’s outfit at Pope’s funeral sparks reactions

While she’s been criticized by some for her choice of wardrobe on public occasions, most people agree that Melania Trump is the best dressed First Lady the country has ever had.

Melania received backlash in 2017 when she accompanied her husband to the G7 summit in Sicily and wore a Dolce and Gabana floral coat that cost $51,000. At the time, USA Today reported it was the equivalent of an average American’s household income.

Stephanie Grisham, former White House press secretary and author of the book I’ll Take Your Questions Now, recalled a specific moment when Trump went mad over his wife’s “mistake,” which made him target of wide criticism. Namely, on her way to a migrant housing facility in Texas, Melania wore a jacket with the text “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?”

The truth is that Melania Trump’s fashion statements often cause a stir among the public, and most recently, her choice of outfit for the Pope’s funeral didn’t fall short on sparking controversy.

Melania was dressed in an-all black outfit for the service from the Italian designer label Dolce & Gabbana, Women’s Wear Daily reported. Her outfit was a double-breasted coat paired with a black mantilla and black gloves.

This isn’t the first time the First Lady to opt for the Italian label.

“She’s always had a great relationship with Dolce & Gabbana. She is a very faithful person and has been wearing their outfits for a long time. It made sense to chose them given the place of religion in Italian culture,” photographer Régine Mahaux told WWD.

As a mark of respect, Melania wore a black lace funeral veil, known as a mantilla veil. Being of Slovenian descent—a traditionally Catholic country—her choice reflected cultural and religious significance. According to the Catholic Company, the mantilla is “often worn by faithful women as a way of emulating Mary, who is the archetype of humility.” It “signifies the role of women as a life-bearing vessel.”

Wearing the veil and closing her eyes several times during the service brought praise to the First Lady.

“Ultimate class and reverence, Melania Trump wearing a Mantilla Veil,” one user wrote on X, per Express. A second added: “Melania was perfect this time by wearing black and a mantilla.”

A third stated: “First Lady Melania Trump honored Pope Francis with a stunning black lace veil and elegant attire at his funeral, reflecting her deep appreciation for the moment. Her attire not only paid homage to her own Catholic faith but also echoed the iconic style of Jacqueline Kennedy, making it a significant fashion statement.”

As always, there were also those who criticized her choice—especially her high heels, which they deemed inappropriate.

“Why did Melania wear 8-inch heels to the pope’s funeral? Not appropriate. These people have zero class,” someone wrote.

While she earned admiration from the public, Melania’s husband was slammed for disrespecting Pope Francis and the service.

Namely, he opted for a blue color suit while everyone else’s was black.
