Some people were critical of Ivanka Trump\u2019s outfit at the 2025 Liberty Inaugural Ball in Washington on Monday.\n\n\n\n
Her father, Ivanka Trump, who has always been both humorous and controversial, was formally sworn in as president earlier this week, if you haven\u2019t been living under a rock. Trump\u2019s second term as US president began on that day. The previous tenure of the real estate magnate was from 2017 to 2021.\n\n\n\n
Internet people throughout the world followed and scrutinized almost every facet of Trump\u2019s historic day, as was to be expected. In the days following the presidential inauguration, Elon Musk\u2019s purported \u201cNazi salute,\u201d Melania Trump\u2019s hat choice, and potential lip readers have all garnered attention. Additionally, they have attempted to ascertain what could have been stated by Barron Trump to Joe Biden.\n\n\n\n
On the day of the inauguration, nothing passed ignored, and it seems that even something as harmless as a dress may provoke heated online debate.\n\n\n\n
During Donald Trump\u2019s first term in office, Ivanka Trump, his daughter, donned the dress while giving advice to her father.\n\n\n\n
We will now take this opportunity to publicly express our belief that no one should ever be reprimanded or called out for their clothing choices (within reason, of course).\n\n\n\n
However, the internet will continue to do what it does best, which is to provide a safe haven for comments that don\u2019t care about decency, morality, or anything else. In other words, people will constantly make comments about the haircuts, clothing choices, speech patterns, and other actions of celebrities.\n\n\n\n
As mentioned earlier, Ivanka Trump appeared to provoke the anger of some online users with her choice of clothing for the Liberty Ball on Inauguration Day. Inspired by one of the most important female idols of the last century, Ivanka donned a duplicate of Audrey Hepburn\u2019s dress from the 1954 film Sabrina.\n\n\n\n
Even more startling is the fact that the unique ensemble is credited to Hubert de Givenchy. Ivanka\u2019s version, a white gown with a short train and black floral embroidery, is credited to the French design house Givenchy.\n\n\n\n
Ivanka also wore a pair of black opera gloves that to her elbows, a diamond necklace, stiletto heels, and a chignon. These accessories matched Hepburn\u2019s original almost exactly.\n\n\n\n Although Ivanka looked incredibly beautiful in the outfit, some people felt obliged to provide criticism, as is so often the case these days.\n\n\n\n \u201cThe more I examine the details, the more ridiculous this becomes,\u201d one particularly critical online user wrote.\n\n\n\n \u201cIvanka\u2019s rendition lacks the same elegance and has cartoonish-looking texture and embroidery,\u201d another person commented. Hepburn is not comparable.\n\n\n\n \u201cAudrey Hepburn would curse them all,\u201d wrote a third, who chose to attack the purported Hepburn connection. She didn\u2019t survive World War II and battled against all the Trump family stands for, all for her clothing to be utilized in this way. What a disgrace.\n\n\n\n Audrey would have detested Ivanka and her family,\u201d another person commented.\n\n\n\n Naturally, this only supports one side of the argument, and it must be said that Ivanka\u2019s appearance and evening attire were highly commended by many.\n\n\n\n Hepburn\u2019s son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer, stated that it was \u201cno wonder\u201d that Ivanka chose to pay tribute to his late mother because of their strong family ties.\n\n\n\n In order to find the ultimate elegance and class reference for an occasion like this one \u2013 the inauguration and the 32nd anniversary of our mother\u2019s passing, and, most importantly, Martin Luther King Day \u2013 she naturally looked up to our mother, who was a household name growing up, he told DailyMail. \u201cWhat a mixture!\u201d\n\n\n\n It is apparent that neither Ivanka nor her husband, Jared Kushner, will return to their White House jobs during Donald\u2019s second term.\n\n\n\n What were your thoughts on Ivanka\u2019s dress?
