It's the most glamorous event of the Trumps' three-day state visit to the UK, and Ivanka Trump tonight put on suitably glam display as she attended her first state banquet as a guest of the Queen.  

The First Daughter, 37, stepped out in a pastel blue print dress by Carolina Herrera for an effortlessly glamorous look, teamed with pearl accessories. 

The event topped off a momentous day for Ivanka, which included a private lunch with the Queen, a tour of the Royal Collection at Buckingham Palace, where she mingled with Prince Harry, and visited Westminster Abbey.

Channel your inner princess like Ivanka wearing Carolina Herrera

The president's daughter made a fashion statement during attendance of the State Banquet with the queen, looking quite like a princess herself.

Ivanka donned a baby blue Carolina Herrera tie-sleeve trench gown with floral embellishments and a billowy, pleated skirt, creating a classic A-line silhouette. It featured a shirt collar with button front, and the three-quarter tie-sleeves added even more elegance to the gown. The designer has been known for dressing first ladies, from Jackie O to Michelle Obama, so it's no wonder Ivanka wanted to don the label while abroad.

While most of us don't have the same budget as the First Daughter, the dress is currently available to buy for a casual $10,990 at Neiman Marcus. If that's a little above your shopping range, check the edit below to channel your inner princess like Ivanka with one of these blue beauties.
