The sleeveless dress designed by Mary Katrantzou is currently on sale.
Melania Trump opted for a Greek fashion designer at Friday's congressional picnic at the White House.
The First Lady chose an ivory stretch crepe dress with a colorful graphic check designed by Mary Katrantzou, who was born in Athens, Greece, but is currently based in London. The sleeveless silhouette retails for $1,496, but it's on sale right now for $897 at matchesfashion.com.

Melania typically favors monochromatic looks (save for that $51K 3D floral jacket by Dolce & Gabbana), from that fitted, sky blue Michael Kors she wore to meet Panamanian president Juan Carlos Varela and his wife, Lorena Castillo de Varela, on Monday to an all-black Stella McCartney jumpsuit paired with anoversize gold belt during her Saudi Arabia trip.
Unlike her one-hue-only ensembles, FLOTUS added a pop of pattern with her latest look. Interestingly, she chose to wear a hint of rainbow on the same weekend as the New York City Pride Parade, which takes place Sunday. (The rainbow has long been a symbol of gay pride.)
Could the FLOTUS be using her wardrobe to silently protest against her husband's anti-gay agenda? She has yet to tweet (or voice) any support for the LGBT community, but perhaps

I posted a thread on this today . Daily Mail has lots of pics. I put pics on the thread. I found one where a Countess is wearing the same dress. She had a sweater over it.
ROFLOL
of course they had to make a gay pride statement about the dress, typical liberals.
Nice dress.
Mrs. Pence appears to have lost some weight.
Nobody could look at her dress and assume there is a hidden gay agenda.
liberalism is a mental disease! of course Melania was wearing it in honor of the nyc pride parade...talk about projection by the author
I still think that many of President Trump’s adversaries go against him simply our of jealousy of Melania. They see what a true gem he has for a wife - day after day, week after week...
Enough to make a grown man cry (as Mick Jagger would say).
I don’t recall seeing a single price given for any First Lady’s choice in apparel before the present First Lady.
That’s going back to Jackie Kennedy.
Or a dead man... well.
Post a link to the thread you posted as FYI if others want to scan thru it.
I thought that gay comment on her dress was stupid.
Just like the idea that she is wearing sleeveless dresses because she stole the idea from Michelle Obama. I posted pics of other FLOTUS that have worn sleeveless..btw, Coolidge has a WH portrait with a sleeveless dress.
You missed Nancy Reagan, then. I am SURE the price was mentioned on her clothes.
The media hate her for her great beauty and elegance.
She makes the Mooch look like.....well, the Mooch.

It has the Pence dress. She has worn it more than once. Her budget is far more limited. Still an expensive dress but not over $1000
Something like $585
Melania could wear ANYTHING (or nothing at all,) she is a beautiful woman...
These lefty websites don’t seem to realize the are objectifying FLOTUS only by reporting on her appearance.
She has accomplished much, and has repeatedly shown she is a patriot with a good heart, but that won’t receive any coverage from the LeftStream media!
