"There is nothing sarcastic about her style, nothing experimental. It is very true and solid," says the New York-based designer, who has known the current first lady for 11 years.
You can count Alice Roi among Melania Trumps trusted circle of New York friends. The 40-year-old fashion designer has known the current first lady for 11 years, having met through Rois husband, Marc Beckman. (snip)
The first dress Roi ever designed for Trump? A chic maternity look while she was pregnant with son Barron, who turned 11 on March 20. "We attended a few parties together, and soon after I made her a dress," Roi explains.
Fast-forward to this years inauguration, and Trump now may have Roi on speed dial. The pair have collaborated on two designs for high-profile events: the National Prayer Service on Jan. 21 and a trip on Air Force One to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla., on March 17. Here, Roi shares her thoughts about crafting unique looks and the role Trump plays throughout the design process.
"She wanted something clean, dark and simple. I envisioned a very 1960s look with thick, structured wool and welted seams, almost a preppy, Love Story type of coat. We agreed that the belt should not only be a waist-defining moment, but also an opportunity to infuse a modern sleekness into the look. So we chose a navy monochromatic patent belt. When she put on the whole look, everyone in the room gasped. It was everything I wanted it to be and everything she wanted it to be. There were a million references, and yet it was completely modern. She was perfect. [It was] a moment I will never forget."

Melania is beautiful in anything.
“I would love to see her side by side with Hillary in a pant suit.”
There’s a 25 year age difference,for heaven’s sake-——of course she would look better.
Comparing her to Michelle shows how beautiful she is.

Remember THIS?--White dresses during the conventions:
In post 24 who is the woman with the grey hair?
Photoshopped?
>>>In post 24 who is the woman with the grey hair?<<<
I see what you did there. LOL
I thought at first it was that “Christian Woman” Donna Brazille.
If not, it’s just another Race Baiting Rat dressed in White.
No, the top picture in Post #12 is Photoshopped.
Moochelle was not walking up the Stairs with the other two Women pictured. I believe it was the same location at different times.
She's Rep. Joyce Beatty (D-Ohio)
She really wore that disgusting outfit in #16?!
Yep. Like I said, she was not walking with the other two Women when she wore that, the pictures were combined.
Face facts, Liberals go on and on about what a Fashion Plate Moochelle was and is. They are so out of touch with reality that they let their Political views cloud their Common Sense and obviously their Vision.
With her body shape (not her fault, it’s her DNA), Moochelle would be a challenge to Dress and sometimes she pulled it off, but not as often as the Liberal Fashion Industry Elite would care to admit.
When you would read al the complimentary opinions about the beauty of Moocelle’s fashion choices, you would think we are living in a Twilight Zone Episode starring Donna Douglas.
There are many beautiful Liberal Women, but their belief system insures that their Beauty is only skin deep.
Thanks, I did not recognize her.
Please put me on the First Lady Melania’s ping list!
Consider it done Bookwoman. :D
