Ivanka Trump Wears An Ombre Skirt Suit To The SOTU

Fashion fans had plenty to discuss as the Trump women stepped out in their chicest suits, though most of the internet agreed that Ivanka stole the spotlight. She wore a black-and-white textured skirt suit by her go-to designer, Oscar de la Renta.

The ensemble featured a structured, long-sleeve blazer ($4,990) paired with a skirt ($2,390) that fell below her knees. She completed the look with black pumps and a matching black clutch, styling her hair in a sleek, straight center part and complementing her outfit with a smoky eye and nude lip.

In a group photo, the other Trump women and their partners showcased their own stylish ensembles. Tiffany Trump opted for a tweed pantsuit, Lara Trump wore a gray pinstripe pantsuit paired with a blue button-up, Don Jr.’s fiancée, Bettina Anderson, chose a burgundy pantsuit, and First Lady Melania Trump kept it classic in a gray pantsuit with a crisp white button-up. All the men wore suits.

Fans took to Twitter to praise her polished ensemble: “Ivanka kinda steals the fashion show, however. Lovely,” wrote one user on X. Another added on Instagram, “Simply stunning in every word of class!!!!” A third commented, “Beautiful, classy Ivanka.”

During his speech, the president touted a “roaring economy,” highlighting record-high stock markets and falling gas prices. On immigration, he described the U.S. border as the “strongest and most secure” in history, claiming that no illegal aliens had been admitted in the past nine months.

He urged Congress to pass the “Dalilah Law” to ban commercial licenses for undocumented immigrants and called for an end to “deadly sanctuary cities.”

The speech took a highly partisan tone, with Trump repeatedly labeling Democrats “crazy” and “ashamed” for not standing during his immigration remarks.

Ivanka Trump And Barron Trump Have A Mysterious Exchange During SOTU

During the address, the mother of three sat next to Barron Trump, showing off their close sibling bond. Their interaction quickly went viral, with lip readers trying to decipher their exchange.

Lip reader Jeremy Freeman believes Ivanka turned to Barron and asked, “What are you doing on…?” though he couldn’t make out the last word. In response, somewhat cryptically, Barron replied, “I’m not sure, I couldn’t be a***d.”

Despite occasional rumors of distance, the siblings have appeared together publicly, including a playful moment when Barron Trump photobombed Ivanka and Tiffany Trump at their father’s 2025 inauguration.
