On Saturday night, President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump hosted Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzō Abe and his wife, Akie Abe, at Mar-a-Lago for dinner.

Melania wore a sleeveless black dress with a low-dipping back and a layer of lace on top.

She also wore black patent leather stiletto pumps with red soles — the telltale signature of shoe designer Christian Louboutin. The president wore a dark suit and a bright blue tie with white polka dots.

This look followed the $4,000 white Calvin Klein sheath that Melania wore earlier in the day on a tour of the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach, Fla., with Akie Abe.

Calvin Klein was one of the few American designers who responded with a resounding yes to dressing the first lady. Melania paired the cashmere dress with nude patent leather flats, minimizing her height and making for easier walking as she toured the 16-acre gardens.

Like the first ladies before her, every fashion move from Melania Trump is history in the making. From the former model’s white off-the-shoulder gown that she co-designed with Hervé Pierre to the hot-pink Dior dress she stepped out in for a charity event, all eyes are on Melania.
