For the uninitiated, the Met Gala is one of the biggest nights in both fashion and Hollywood.
Did you know that this is what they were wearing when it happened?
In 2004, the theme was “Dangerous Liaisons: Fashion and Furniture in the 18th Century.”
Donald took this opportunity to lock things down with his future first lady.
Unfortunately, the sparkly new addition did not save their shockingly drab looks.
Melania wore a black gown with intricate cutouts around the midriff.
We usually see the former model with light, dimensional hair color.
Her heavy, glitzy jewelry also felt over the top not including her new engagement ring, of course.
And yet, Donald’s tux was ill-fitting with pants that looked both too high and too baggy.
Unfortunately, the former first daughter’s 2005 ensemble does not fall into this category.
However, the matching ruffled scarf just didn’t work.
It distracted from her gorgeous face and made the outfit seem too bird-like overall.
Would a statement shoe and a sleek, slicked-back ponytail have saved this fashion disaster?
No, but they definitely would have helped.
She added to the feeling with what looked like freshly flat-ironed hair and some shockingly basic gold peep-toe pumps.
Donald Trump, on the other hand, did adhere to the theme and took a major fashion risk.
Just kidding, he wore a plain black tuxedo again.
What could possibly be less punk than a classic tux?
The theme was “Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations.”
For fashionistas, this offered a world of options to experiment and show some stylistic flair.
It isn’t horrible, but the ensemble doesn’t feel elevated enough for the Met Gala.
Surely you know what Donald chose to wear for his final Met Gala appearance: A classic black tuxedo.
We get it, classic is classic for a reason (and at least this one fits better).
Instead, the couple’s final Met Gala was dull.
