Lauren Sanchez opts for elegance at Trump's ball after stir
Lauren Sanchez's styling for Donald Trump's inauguration caused quite a stir. Jeff Bezos’ partner opted for a decidedly less daring outfit at the presidential inaugural ball that concluded the event.
On Monday, the entire world was focused on the United States, all due to the high-profile inauguration of Donald Trump being widely covered by the media. After retaking the oath, the 78-year-old was officially inaugurated as the 47th President of the USA. Prominent politicians and well-known business figures attended the solemn event. The outfits of the ceremony attendees were scrutinised by fashion experts who closely analysed the evening attire. The central figure was Melania Trump, who appeared in an elegant navy coat and stylish hat. There was also much attention paid to Lauren Sanchez, who opted for a somewhat daring outfit. Clad in a white suit, Jeff Bezos' partner revealed a lace bra during the inauguration, prompting criticism.
Donald Trump appeared with his wife at three inaugural balls
A long-standing tradition associated with the presidential inauguration in the USA is the hosting of balls that gather Washington's elite and the most fervent supporters of the head of state. According to the White House Historical Association, the first inaugural ball was held in 1809 for President James Madison and his wife, Dolley. As reported by international media, Donald and Melania participated in three presidential inaugural balls on Monday evening: the Commander and Chief Ball, the Liberty Ball, and the Starlight Ball. The President gave a brief speech at each event before dancing with his wife amongst the other couples.

One of the highlights of the third Starlight Ball was a performance by country singer Gavin DeGraw. During the ball at Union Station, the Trumps danced to "Glory, Glory Hallelujah". The event was scheduled to conclude well after midnight, with its finale being a family dance by Donald Trump and his family members to Frank Sinatra’s "I Did It My Way." Among the guests at the Starlight Ball were Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez. This time, the billionaire’s partner chose a less provocative outfit. The journalist sparkled on the dance floor in a golden tulle dress by Dolce & Gabbana. The event was attended by a select group from the American elite, with journalists and photographers not invited. However, Lauren Sanchez showcased her outfit on Instagram.
