BBC News interviewed some of her former acquaintances in her hometown, and each revealed amazing things about the fashion icon's personality.
One of the 49-year-old's former playmates, Jerca Santej, explained how Melania figured she wanted to be a designer right from the age of sixteen. Jerca added:
"She had a straight idea what she would be, and that's unbelievable for such a young girl, so I knew that she would make something special."
A former school teacher of the model, Nena Bedek, described Melania as a humble girl who always knew she wanted to be part of the fashion industry and see the world.
Nena recounted how the mother of one used to collect fashion magazines and nurture her dreams of one day becoming a fashion icon. She explained:
"I always knew our town was too small for her. Melania would look forward to seeing the fashion magazines her mother would bring home, and I knew she wanted to see the world."
A one-time Miss Slovenia at the Miss Universe contest also shared her encounter with the first lady, whom she met in Los Angeles during the Miss Universe pageantry.
The former Miss Slovenia explained how the humble public figure shocked her with a flawless conversation in her native tongue during the contest.
That gesture won the admiration of the beauty contestant who was thrilled that the wife of America's number one citizen still remembered her roots despite being away for decades.
