Melania Trump greeted the Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar at the White House yesterday, ahead of the Shamrock Bowl presentation. The First Lady opted for a Brandon Maxwell dress for the occasion, making a clear display of diplomatic dressing with her choice of green in honour of St Patrick's Day.  

The First Lady's style has undergone a sophisticated reinvention since her husband ran for President, evolving from the high-octane glamour she preferred before becoming a political wife into an elegant and often strict silhouette, mixing American designers with her old favourites such as Valentino and Dolce and Gabbana.
