Hope Hicks has looked like perfection during the Trump trip to Asia, to the point people thought she upstaged Melania. But In China, FLOTUS shined! Why Did Hope tone it down?
During the Trump administrations two-day tour of South Korea, PR director Hope Hicks, 29, has been slaying the fashion game.
Shes rolled out perfect outfit after outfit for the official trip, including an adorable tuxedo for an event, and a cute, ruffled sweater paired with a black skirt for a meeting.
But as President Donald Trump and his team arrived in China, her wardrobe adopted a decidedly different look.
For a state dinner in Beijing with the Chinese president and first lady, Hope was wearing a simple, fuchsia dress with a modest neckline, and a black blazer.
While she looked totally cute, it was nothing special. Its left people wondering if she was ordered to dress more casually to let First Lady Melania Trump, 47, take the spotlight!
This is where Melania got to shine! The FLOTUS is a total fashion plate, and knocks it out of the park no matter what shes wearing. But people thought that Hopes adorable getups were upstaging Melania. Not anymore.
As Hope dressed down, Melania dressed up! At the state dinner, as she walked alongside Chinas First Lady Peng Liyuan, she was spotted wearing the most gorgeous Gucci dress.
The ornate satin dress was cut in a traditional Chinese style, and decorated with embroidered flowers and peacocks.
It also featured baby pink fur cuffs (hopefully faux). Paired with matching baby pink, 5-inch stilettos, she looked like a dream. Hey, if this is Melanias body double, she looks great, too!
HollywoodLifers, do you think there was a reason that Hope wore a more casual dress to the Beijing State Dinner, or was this just her choice of outfit for the event?
Stunning, classy. And high diplomacy! So proud of my First Lady.
Interestingly, the Chinese First Lady could not wear something like that because it's a Western theme on a traditional Chinese design. Would love to see a close up on the embroidery.
Melania is rocking the world of fashion!
The Wookie? Glad she finally hung up those leather stomach belts -- with matching cleats.
That’s a wig.
More Fake news. Who cares what she wears?
Seems inappropriate unless she’s using the job as a springboard. It’s not supposed to be about her but about communicating POTUS agenda.
Now that is background info that explains a lot. An entitled princess.
Why would you say it’s a wig?
She is a natural brunette - if anything, it’s blonde highlights and extensions.
How about a nice burka ... (Damn the dummies!)
Didn’t the Wookie fire her social secretary for outshining her?
Exactly, they are pushing it hard.
There is no reason HH’s name should have even come up on this trip other than MSM drama. Yes, she came on the trip, but typically is behind the scenes and doesn’t talk to the press. Stephen Miller is on the trip too, but you don’t hear stories about HIS wardrobe. Sheesh.
Cute in a childlike way but couldn’t hold a candle for Melina to run by.
No, she has extensions in her real hair. You can tell by how flat her top hair is and the scalp showing. My wife wears extensions sometimes and looks exactly like Hope's hair as it cascades way below her shoulders. It's very common now.

Sorry, sometimes I can’t control myself. ;(
That woman is gorge, as is the FLOTUS. Could be her doppelganger. :)
Agree. Id like to see her gone.
Oops! Did I say that out loud?
Shouldnt be there??? She is Trumps Communications Director!
Tell that to The Donald. Hope is very close to Trump and you wouldnt last long on his staff if you made that comment to him.
Yup. And half the clowns here dont know that.
Dressed like that she could have been mistaken for staff.
Waitstaff.
