[/quote]

She looked beautiful and the gown was custom. It was daring (for American fashion tbh, Americans are less daring, esp first ladies) and unusual for an inaugural gown. It’s hard to pull off a choker and Melania did. She trended less colonial and more continental today, and it’s disconcerting to some of the hayseeds.

Ivanka followed suit. They both looked fantastic.

Oooh, this is beautiful… another +1 for Ivanka!  Finally the woman leverages her best asset… her beautiful figure, in a normal way.  -OP[/quote]

That is GORGEOUS. The fit, the line, the all of it.[/quote]

Absolutely stunning.  [/quote]

It looks like a dress from David’s Bridal.

Nailed it! Just tacky. So many amazing designers out there and this is the best she can do? Looks like something my 8 year old DD might have picked out for princess dress up.[/quote]

DP.  You know it’s a redesign by Givenchy, right?  It’s absolutely gorgeous.[/quote]

Yes absolutely. And it may have been lovely in the ‘50s on a 25 year old in a movie. Totally ridiculous princess fantasy today.[/quote]

Disagree.  It was beautiful.  DP.

In the end, for me, she does cheapen it, even though it is a beautiful dress.

First I find the length a little bit awkward on her.  It’s hitting at her… calves?  Instead of taking advantage of her height and wearing something flowy there’s this weird hard stop at her calves.

Then the pattern.  This is a dress that is so iconic and was worn by such a petite person and while Ivanka is not fat, she is really tall and the negative space of the pattern is off on her larger (ha!) body.  It seems like there’s more white and less pattern and it looks off.

The dress is so perfect, and was so perfect, and on Ivanka it’s not the same.

I sort of blame Givenchy the fashion house for indulging Ivanka on this.  There are so many ways to do an homage without producing a carbon copy.  A dress with a different pattern, different cut, color… [/quote]

The length seems off to me also.[/quote]

Yes. It looks like a high-low hemline, which is dated and definitely ups the David's Bridal vibes.

White is NOT a great color for Ivanka, her hair is making her look incredibly harsh, which also throws off the delicate feel of the dress, and it's actually kind of "too young" for her. BAD. [/quote]

Oh, wow - I completely disagree.  I think she looks absolutely spectacular in this dress!  The only thing I would have changed is removing the necklace.  And the high/low hemline was original to the dress.  Love it.[/quote]

On Audrey it wasn’t a high low-it was tea length with a train over skirt.  (Tea length was considered the appropriate length in the 1950s if it was not an evening event. ).  I can’t remember the plot of the movie well enough but in the photos her costar is wearing a white jacket which also suggests it was an afternoon party, not evening wear.  It would be consisted tacky to wear a full length to an afternoon party, hence tea length with the overslkirt for drama.

At any rate, The PP is right that the designer got the proportions a little wrong for Ivanka so it looks too short.  PP is also right that the embroidery is not sized right in this dress.  I still like the dress but it’s hard to wear a copy without inviting “who wore it best?” And you’re never going to beat the original here.  It’s a nice dress but she’s no Audrey.  I think something with a similar cut but maybe in an [b]ice blue or lavender with navy or black embroidery[/b] would have been better on Ivanka.  [/quote]

Pp you are referring to and you actually read my mind!  Blue would have been lovely, changing up the embroidery as well.[/quote]
