Melania, 47, wore a dramatic, long Gucci dress reminiscent of traditional Chinese clothing as she and her husband arrived for a state dinner hosted by President Xi Jinping

Hope, 29, donned a simple bright pink garment underneath a plain black jacket with rolled-up sleeves; she kept out of the spotlight and was only photographed from the waist up

The first lady previously wore a Dolce & Gabbana dress, earlier in the day during a visit in a primary school with her Chinese counterpart, Peng Liyuan

Melania and Hope are traveling with President Trump during his 12-day trip around Asia; they are currently in China after a start in Japan and South Korea, and will also visit Vietnam and the Philippines

The White House communications director has given Melania a run for her money in the style department, beginning on Monday when she may have upstaged the first lady by wearing a unique tuxedo at a banquet in Japan

On Wednesday, Hope once again looked notably chic in a grey turtleneck sweater as she listened to President Trump's address at the National Assembly in Seoul

I wouldn't want to be the one covering the tab on that dress! Truly gorgeous.

And the dress is nice, too.

Absolutely gorgeous. Graceful, sensitive to other cultures. She knows how to pay respect to other cultures (the Chinese dress; the dress she wore in the ME. She is a smart cookie, so to speak. She speaks five languages, I think, and must have traveled the world as a model.

Fantastic FLOTUS! I hope Melania sees these threads about her. She has a fan base! :)

Yeah, yeah. But, come on. She’s no Michelle Obama.

LOL! Well, no one in the world has "fabulously toned arms" like Michelle...;)
