Melania Trump is a former model turned First Lady of the United States so no wonder she likes to be fashionable. However, it was recently revealed that she has been spending a staggering amount to replenish her wardrobe with nice clothes and accessories that everyone could see when she attends a public event.
Needless to say, she only dons on designer clothing pieces and this has been how it is through the years. Then again, throughout her stay at the White House as Donald Trump’s first lady, people took notice of how much she was spending to dress up to the nines.
How much is the FLOTUS’ expenses on her wardrobe?
Melania Trump has been on many major events in 2019 and this also means that she has accumulated a huge bill to maintain her fashion statement. Express reported that the FLOTUS already racked up a total of £193,694 or $259,766 on clothes and this just for this year alone. It was noted that this does not include her garments from the past year so the bill is really much higher than this.
The publication further listed some of Melania Trump’s most expensive outfits this year and these include a Cedric Charlier coat that cost £1,401 or $1,878. In February, she purchased clothes amounting to £16,000 or $21,457. She also has a $2,322 Valentino coat and $2,414 Adam Lippes floral coat.
In her most recent outing which is the NATO summit that she attended with Donald Trump in London. She met the royal family wearing her yellow Valentino cape coat that reportedly cost around $6,000.
Who advises Melania on her clothes?
Since the time when Melania Trump was shamed for the $2,950 pink outfit she wore an event where she gave a speech about issues of bullying, Grazia Daily reported that the FLOTUS needed someone who will give her advice on the way she dresses. Thus, she hired Hervé Pierre, a designer who also previously help dressed other famous First Ladies including Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama and Laura Bush. He is apparently the person behind Trump’s expensive wardrobe.
