Melania Trump Hat
January 21, 2025 – During President Donald Trump’s second inauguration, Melania Trump’s hat designed by Eric Javits became the talk of the internet.
First Lady Melania Trump wore a sleek boater-style hat during her husband’s inauguration. The wide-rimmed headwear almost entirely obscured her eyes and created a chic and serious impression in combination with her Adam Lippes dark navy coat and stiletto heels. Her memorable look quickly became the talk of the internet and a subject of speculation.
“She almost blew away.” – Trump
During his inauguration speech, President Donald Trump joked about his wife’s hat.
Then we went out to the helicopter, though, just prior to this, and said goodbye and custom, and the wind is blowing like crazy, and with the hat that she’s wearing, she almost blew away,” he said. “She was being elevated off the ground. She almost blew away.”
Melania’s hat was designed by Eric Javits, a milliner based in New York, who was certain the hat was secure. He told NBC local, “I know it was secured very nicely to her head because I sort of engineered a little invisible elastic in the back,” assuring them that “it wasn’t such a huge brim that would fly off her head.”
Melania Trump’s Hat Made Kissing Trump Difficult

Be so committed to your outfit that you cannot give your husband a kiss (even if he’s becoming President)
