The second Melania Trump stepped on to the political circuit, the general public rewarded her by using words like classy and elegant to describe her style, much like Jackie Kennedy. However, there is a growing list of designers that won’t dress her simply because they don’t agree with President Trump's policies. These designers include: Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs, Christian Siriano, Rebecca Minkoff, Dolce & Gabbana, Calvin Klein, and Rag and Bone.

However, Tom unlike other designers, doesn’t want to dress Melania Trump because his clothes are very expensive and made in Italy and that isn’t representative of what the First Lady should be broadcasting because all American people should have access to them. He has also said this would be the case even if Hillary would have become president (The Cut).

However, the list of designers that will dress Melania is growing as well, such as Calvin Klein and Rag and Bone.

Stefano Gabbana himself has Instagramed a photo of the first lady hash tagging it with DG women (The Cut).

Head designers for Calvin Klein state that of course; they are an American brand that will dress no matter the political party (The Cut).

Marcus Wainwrite says if we are going to get on board with this idea of inclusiveness and "Making America Great Again," then American fashion should support. This is something that should come before personal political beliefs.

And for my favorite answer from Tommy Hilfiger…

"I think Melania is a very beautiful woman and I think any designer should be proud to dress her. Ivanka is equally as beautiful and smart, although she wears her own clothes," he told WWD. "I don’t think people should become political about it. Everyone was very happy to dress Michelle [Obama] as well. I think they look great in the clothes. You’re not gonna get much more beautiful than Ivanka or Melania." (The Cut)

Here are some of my favorite looks from the First Lady in designers that help bring out her beauty and grace.

1.

This floral jacket is approximately $51K and designed by Dolce Gabbana. She wore this to accompany her husband in Sicily, Italy.

2.

All black Stella McCartney with gold accessories, a gold belt by YSL (now sold out because of the recent outing), and Christian Louboutin pumps. The outfit was worn to meet King Salaman in Saudi Arabia.

3.

Her inauguration outfit was the look where the general public said she emulated Jackie Kennedy. She was dressed in a Ralph Lauren blue dress and matching coat, accompanied with blue heels.

4.

This floor- length, floral dress was yet again designed by Dolce Gabbana, and worn when accompanying her husband for political meetings around Italy.

5.

Reema Acra floor-length purple gown with jeweled collar worn in Saudi Arabia. Also, she decided to forgo the traditional headscarf which I applaud her for.

6.

Masion Ullens, a Belgian designer, dressed her in a leather ensemble to meet Queen Fabiola at Children’s Hospital.

7.

Burberry Trench coat a classic piece that Melania wore to meet Wounded Vets in Maryland.

8.

Valentino Red dress worn to welcome President Xi Jinping of China. In China, red is a color of good luck.

9.

Melania’s official portrait was taken in a black Dolce and Gabbana jacket.

10.

Her Inauguration Ball dress was co-designed by herself with the help of Herve Dierre (former creative director of Carolina Herrera). This is one of my most favorite looks, it's classic with it’s head-to-toe white but has a republican flare with the red bow. She is truly one heck of a FLOTUS!

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
