First Lady Melania Trump made a rare public appearance at the annual Senate Spouses Luncheon on May 21, briefly discussing her Fostering the Future initiative while dressed in a traditional ivory outfit accented with pearls. She also shared a rare Instagram post highlighting the event.

However, it was Second Lady Usha Vance who truly captured attention, arriving in a striking cobalt-blue Badgley Mischka gown—previously worn at the 2024 Republican National Convention—that showcased her shoulders. Online commentators praised the bold ensemble as “a repeat done right,” marking a departure from her typically understated style.

Once a modest lawyer and mother of three, Usha’s profile has risen alongside her husband JD Vance’s election as vice president. She has launched a fashion brand blending boldness with elegance, drawing both criticism and acclaim, reflecting her growing confidence.

Despite ongoing speculation around both women, Usha’s poised demeanor and daring fashion statement suggest she is embracing her role with assurance and determination.
