Trump, in a robin’s egg blue dress and matching jacket, and her 15-year-old daughter Arabella Kushner occupied a prominent position at the ceremony, alongside Vice-President J.D. Vance and his wife, Usha Vance.

The arrangement drew attention since members of Donald Trump’s cabinet – including Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth – were seated further back.

US media reported that Ivanka Trump’s striking blue gown and jacket with silver embroidery were designed by Guo, while her daughter wore a white belted midi dress by London-based fashion brand Self-Portrait.
