FULL TITLE: Ralph Lauren shares soar after Melania Trump chooses ensemble by the American designer for her husband's inauguration
Supporting her husband as he was sworn in as president, Melania Trump looked a vision in a baby blue custom Ralph Lauren dress and coat.
And as she stood by Donald Trump's side as he took the oath of office in the Jackie Kennedy-inspired ensemble, the designer saw their company stock soar.
When Ralph Lauren shares closed on Thursday before the inauguration, they were at $88.20 a share in what has been a quiet month for the American firm.

I agree. It's hard for a lot of women, especially those of us who didn't feel pretty in adolescence, to find our personal style. It was silly the press tried to hold her up as a fashion icon all along, but she's gotten help, and a huge confidence boost, in her years as first lady. She's been a lot better turned out in the second term.
She was beautiful! Her dress last night was also incredible...and today at the Prayer Breakfast.
Melani has beauty that acts like gravity and attracts eyeballs and stares. That blue outfit was something else.
Some say Ivankas pantsuit choice was a snub at Hillary, i would agree with that.
I have posted this before and I am posting it again. Dressing Michelle Obama is like putting Bondo on a dump truck. The lumps and bumps are smoothed out but it is still an ugly beast.
The leftist designers only really love her politics, not her beauty.
I would guess Ralph will not give her boob belt ensembles.
Cause that would just be cultural appropriation....
Then those people and YOU would be wrong!
She looked fantastic.
He even drew the bulge on the Mooch.
I thought Ivankas choice of clothing wasn’t bad at all for a cold wet day walking down a street where in an instant chaos could erupt. She could have worn coveralls for all i care, on her it would still make her look like a billion dollars.
The boob belt was hideous any way you look at it.
OTOH....the ballgown was perfect, in every single way.
You are right but i wasn’t offended, she is so graceful, seriously.
I'm a HUGE Trumper, have been onboard and VERY outspoken since DAY ONE; however, sycophants turn my stomach.
I think its more relaxed now to just post what you feel and believe in, even a week ago i would delete half my comments half way through before posting because i could not identify others true intentions, we need not hide or soften our tone anymore, we are the awakened giant, will will roar, we did not become neutered beasts.
Have I ever gotten into heated debates here? HELL YES, I SURE HAVE, but I don't break the rules and refuse to back down; especially when I know that I am correct. ;^)
If others can't take the truth....that's their problem! :-)
Disagree. Gorgeous dress! Doesn’t need to show a lot of skin when it fits her like a glove.
