Melania Trump wears chic all-black ensemble for Donald’s United Nations talks in New York

Melania Trump, 48, was by her husband’s side today at the United Nations talks in New York City.

The Presidential pair were at the General Debate of the 73rd session of the General Assembly, where Donald joined in discussions.

Looking as chic as ever, the First Lady wore an all-black ensemble, looking understated and demure for the political event.

As she took her seat for the talks, Melania greeted fellow attendees with a kiss on the cheek.

As she prepared to watch her husband, Melania looked stunning in a black fitted midi shirt dress.

The dress featured a high neck with collar detailing, featuring buttons running down the length of the dress.

Adding more of a shirt feel to the garment, it also featured pocket detailing with matching buttons.

Showing off her enviable figure, the garment was cinched in at the waist by a thin black belt.

The bottom half of the chic dress also featured pocket detailing, a look similar to that seen on Meghan Markle earlier in the year.

Melania wore her caramel brown hair in its signature style, loose, parted in the middle and with natural curls.

Her makeup was brown and nude in tone, in keeping with the demure, minimalistic feel of the outfit.

On her feet she finished the outfit off with a sky-high pair of black court shoes, elongating her model-esque frame. 

Melania was also joined by Donald’s children, Eric, Ivanka and Tiffany Trump, along with Ivanka’s husband, Jared Kushner.

Donald’s eldest daughter and senior advisor to the president, Ivanka, wore a grey, checkered two-piece skirt suit, which looked slightly too big for her.

The family were at the UN headquarters to watch President Trump address the General Debate of the General Assembly, but Melania didn’t sit with the rest of the Trump clan.

Last week, Melania once again stunned in a cream and navy blue coat.

Meeting with foreign dignitaries, Melania opted for a nautical theme, wearing the thick, woollen coat.

The white and blue number was a Gucci piece and costs and whopping £2,400 on the brand’s website.

US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump waited for the arrival of Polish President Andrzej Duda, 46, and his wife Agata Kornhauser-Duda, also 46, to the White House.

Agata Kornhauser-Duda is a German teacher and works at the Jan III Sobieski High School, Kraków.
