A number of iconic fashion designers are reportedly chomping at the bit for the chance to dress future First Lady Melania Trump for Inauguration Day. New York socialite and philanthropist and Trump family friend Jean Shafiroff, who sits on the Couture Council of The Museum at New Yorks Fashion Institute of Technology, took a poll to determine how interested designers were when asked their thoughts on dressing Mrs. Trump.
Shafiroff told the New York Post that Zac Posen, B. Michael America, Victor de Souza, and Zang Toi are among the designers who say theyd be willing to dress the First Lady to-be.
Any designer who dresses her will get enormous press, Shafiroff told the outlet.
The news comes after several world-renowned designers, including Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs, publicly declined to design clothing for Mrs. Trump.

I noticed that as the Golden Globes approached, I didn’t really hear a lot of people actually talking about the wretched stuff that had been nominated. Who cares about Hollywood’s product? But I did see a lot of discussion about the dresses that would be worn. People do seem to still love fashion.
Melania will garner a lot of attention from designers and the public.
a)
or b)
Someone who is going to completely ROCK any dress you put on her and do it in front of the entire world... What designer would want that?
And Michelle’s is not one of them.....thankfully!
By the way, Tom Ford is the same Tom Ford who wrote and produced the movie NOCTURNAL ANIMALS. IT won something last night. Sure it is depraved. I will not see it.
“...several world-renowned designers, including Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs, publicly declined to design clothing for Mrs. Trump.”
Preemptive sour grapes.
I note the omission of Chauncey Gardiner's mom, progenitor of the boob belt. I'm sure she's crushed at the lack of acknowledgment. Without Michelle Obama intentionally wanting to look like a dog's breakfast to disrespect the institution, who's going to buy her wacky crap anymore.
It’ll never be reported, but you can bet ‘The Mooch’ is steaming mad!
Melania looks beautiful in whatever she wears, and she makes the clothes look good too. I look forward to seeing her dress.
Project Runway could make it one of their challenges; to design something for the First Lady.
Of course Melania is less of a challenge than a few other people I could think of...
Dress Mrs Trump in a gunny sack and she’ll still look radiant. Just get the inauguration over with and the whole world will be happy, especially the American jobless(we all hope). MAGA and jobs, jobs and MAGA.
Melania is absolutely gorgeous!! Grace, poise, class and intelligence. And she is a model. She will make any design look spectacular!
No one with any sense would say no to this type of opportunity. Once in a lifetime gig, and lots of future business!
the local FEED STORE could dress her and she will look FABULOUS!!! I do NOT TRUST DESIGNERS!!!!
I always thought that the people that dressed the MOOCH must have HATED her because she looked AWFUL!!!
I choose “a”, the one that looks like a woman.
To Tom Ford and Marc Jacobs: Who asked you? What a couple of nincompoops.
Hell, I'll dress her for free...../s (somebody had to say it)
I personally would prefer Mrs Trump, if for no other reason than it appears that she bathes and washes her hair periodically.
Can I help dress Melania? Where do I volunteer?
