Despite the divided opinions about her husband, the current First Lady is considered one of the most popular First Ladies ever.
During Donald Trump’s first presidential term, the public showed great interest not only in his often interesting statements but also in his wife, Melania.
The beautiful Slovenian woman is now serving as the First Lady of the United States for the second time. Even those who disagree with her husband’s politics, most users are happy to see her return to this role.
What sets her apart from previous First Ladies is her flawless fashion sense, striking presence, and undeniable charisma.
That’s why the official portrait of the First Lady in her new term was highly anticipated, as it is usually released in the days following the inauguration.
To the delight of her fans, the photo was posted on Melania Trump’s official Instagram account exactly a day ago.
It is a black-and-white photograph with a simple yet elegant composition, keeping the focus entirely on her as the central figure.
With neatly styled hair and a polished look, Melania posed in a white blouse and a black outfit consisting of high-waisted pants and a tailored oversized blazer.
This seemingly simple look captures everything an official portrait should: with her hands resting on a desk, the First Lady appears feminine, confident, and powerful.
Her fans didn’t hide their excitement, filling the comments with reactions like, “Wow! Our queen has arrived!”, “Icon,” and “Finally, style and glamour are back in the White House.”

However, not everyone sees it that way. Some believe the strong, commanding pose is just that—posing. On social media, the portrait has drawn comparisons to promotional images of Claire Underwood, the fictional First Lady from House of Cards, as well as to Kim Kardashian’s GQ fashion shoot.
But there were others like journalist Scott Holleran, who writes for the LA Times and Washington Times, shared his thoughts on X, saying, “I love the reflection of herself — representing that Melania Trump is a hands-on president’s wife — on the business at hand.”
