First lady Melania Trump dressed to the nines for President Donald Trump’s inaugural ball Monday evening.

The former model wore a stunning strapless black-and-white gown as the couple took the stage for the Commander in Chief Inaugural ball.

For her husband’s inauguration ceremony earlier in the day, Melania wore a custom double-breasted navy coat by New York designer Adam Lippes, along with a matching boater hat crafted by American milliner Eric Javits.

The 54-year-old FLOTUS finished the ensemble with lack leather gloves and navy suede pumps.

“The tradition of the presidential inauguration embodies the beauty of American democracy and today we had the honor to dress our first lady, Mrs. Melania Trump,” Lippes captioned an Instagram post showcasing his creation.

“Mrs. Trump’s outfit was created by some of America’s finest craftsmen and I take great pride in showing such work to the world.”

At her first inaugural ball in 2017, Trump wowed in a white silk crepe Hervé Pierre gown with an off-the-shoulder neckline, slit skirt and a red ribbon around the waist, which she helped design.

That same year, the first lady donated the dress to the Smithsonian’s “First Ladies” exhibit, which has been a tradition for over a century.

“It can be a daunting task to choose an outfit that will be mesmerized [sic] and become part of our nation’s story and forever history,” she explained at the museum’s donation ceremony, adding that she “expressed desire for a modern, sleek, light, unique and unexpected look.”

Pierre, a former Carolina Herrera creative director who’s styled Trump for years, had just two weeks to create the gown in collaboration with the incoming first lady.

“I have had a passion for design from a very young age and had a very precise idea of what I wanted for such a historic evening,” Trump said at the time.
