Hope Hicks was a fashion hit after sporting a chic black-and-white tuxedo during President Trump’s state dinner with Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe.
The 29-year-old White House communications director earned raves for her look, which many called “edgy” and “sexy.”
Hicks softened her look with feminine pink lipstick, smoky eye makeup, and flowing brunette locks.
Some media outlets tried to play up a faux rivalry by claiming Hicks had “upstaged” First Lady Melania Trump, who wore an elegant red evening gown.
But the truth is, they both looked gorgeous. The pictures don’t lie.
Hope Hicks was named White House communications director in September 2017 after a brief stint as the WH director of strategic communications. Despite being a PR executive, Hicks has deliberately shunned press interviews, is not active on social media, and does not even have a Twitter account.
Before joining the Trump administration, Hicks — who was briefly a teen model during her youth — did public relations work for Ivanka Trump’s successful fashion line.
The “confusion” is often spewed by liberals trying to discredit Hicks’ qualifications by suggesting she’s merely eye candy in the Trump WH. You know, because a woman can’t be smart and beautiful.
Meanwhile, Hicks was a sensation on Twitter, where many gushed about the brunette stunner.
Some liberals joked that Hope was trying to “emasculate” Trump’s inner circle by upstaging them in stylish menswear. Um, okay.Another said something that many scientific studies indicate is true: “Conservative women are gorgeous.”
Femininity? In a tux? No thanks.
Bond....Jane Bond...
Is it the woman or the tux?
Do you think Michelle Obama would look good in it?
She admits she doesn't like or seek the spotlight. She doesn't do interviews or social media.
Prefers hanging back, blending in with the wait staff. :-)
I am not a fan!!
Yep, very much like a Bond Girl type look . . .
What a tip I would leave her !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I simply can’t get the thought...James Bond movie...out of my head.
Holy Smokes!!!
What a professional. Actually quite a role model for women in business.
Yeah, hate the tux. She’s going to have to take it off.
Sorry, I just look at that photo and think
“Blackjack Dealer”.
She can hit me anytime though. ;)
Dealer at the Casino Royale
I was thinking about it this morning - could be maybe Melania told her go ahead and have some fun - since they seem to be very relaxed on the trip and Melania and Donald getting plenty of good photo coverage. It just seemed like a playful gesture that the Trumps encouraged.
Truly beautiful women don’t look at other beautiful women as competition; they look at them as company.
Let’s not forget that she was the Trump organization face for arranging all the splendid interviews with Trump that brought Trump to power.
And Trump knows better than anyone about the power of the press in spreading the enthusiasm of the campaign. That was a big mission accomplished for Hicks.
