Melania Trump Breaks Silence with New
New Portrait Unveiled
On January 28, 2025, Melania Trump’s new White House portrait was released, photographed in black and white by Régine Mahaux.
Dressed in a tailored black suit, she appears with a “confident posture and direct gaze,”
a sharp contrast to her softer 2017 portrait.
A Shift in Tone
While her earlier image highlighted glamour and grace, the new portrait projects strength and formality.
The Washington Monument in the background underscores her “ongoing connection to American public life.”
Mixed Reactions
Responses have varied.
Critics called her look “overly intense or severe,” while others praised its “elegance, strength, and visual clarity.”
The monochrome style was widely seen as a bold and timeless choice.
Fashion and Image
The release follows attention on her inauguration outfit, with one black hat compared to “funeral attire.”
Known for blending fashion with messaging, Melania continues to intrigue the public through her style and presence.
