First Lady Melania Trump puts a sharp twist on traditional state dinner style, stepping out in a striking black-and-white look as President Trump hosts Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan. The floral pattern of her pants carries a fitting connection to the evening's guests. Her subtle peony motif was a nod to a flower the Chinese call the "King of Flowers." In Chinese tradition, the peony is seen as a symbol of feminine grace and perfection.

@dr.hanshi.kh ❤️❤️❤️❤️

@vmedey Love her outfit but Not for a black tie occasion..

@carlwwilkey Looks like a table cloth knotted around her neck

@otisharrington95 Looks like she got toilet paper, ridicuous.

@juju2964 Beautiful, deep thought went into her look, and nothing but criticism, it’s so exhausting and really so very sad, she looked amazing 🇺🇸😍

@junewilliams1952 STUNNING !!!!!

@cristina_bonomo stunning !

@fondue_fred 🇺🇸❤️

@doniabarton Beautiful lady

@damil_ed The always elegant Madam First Lady. 🙌

@stephaniewstith Sorry, in my opinion not appropriate but I feel she has been trying to portray a harder persona since all they went through last term. I think Usha Vance looked stunning Oscar De La Renta custom gown.

@philippetaillard French/Italian obviously…She rarely wears americans clothes..

@keithrancourt She must have changed out of the Japanese school girl costume for the photo op.

@cala_chua I personally don’t like but I don’t think anything is wrong with it🤷🏻‍♀️
