The Everyday Woman: Ivanka’s $138 Dress versus Hillary’s $12,495 Jacket

1,357 Ivanka Trump reportedly wore a $138, blush-colored dress from her own fashion line — sold at Macy’s and Nordstrom — when she introduced her father Donald Trump on Thursday night at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, where he accepted the Republican Party’s nomination for President of the United States.

The 34-year-old fashionista also wore her own dress on Wednesday night.

“The entrepreneur was also sporting her own designs — $158 off-white dress, $135 black suede pumps and her own considerably pricier precious jewelry — in the Quicken Loans Arena on Wednesday night, when photographers shot her pointing toward her father’s nemesis Ted Cruz,” Women’s Wear Daily reports.

Trump’s decision to adorn her reasonably priced clothing line makes her relatable to every woman and it’s in stark contrast to presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton’s decision to wear a $12,485 Giorgio Armani jacket during her New York primary win in April.

As the New York Post noted, Clinton’s jacket reveals her disconnect from the everyday woman.

“It was a clear attempt to position herself as an everywoman,” the Post reported of Clinton’s victory speech, adding, “But an everywoman she is not — she gave the speech in a $12,495 Giorgio Armani tweed jacket.”

That’s an Armani????

She really can’t wear anything can she? Maybe she ought to opt for a gunny sack

Looked like omar the tent maker used a couch cover to create Mrs Bill’s jacket....

Cankles is wearing a 1957 Kirby Vacuum cleaner bag.

I think Melania will make a lovely first lady and will represent this country in a dignified way. I’m completely happy with the prospect.

It will be nice when the white house is no longer used as a party pad.

That's a historic design that goes back to at least the 1950s if anyone recalls.

My best friends mom made the pea soup and oatmeal for the movie. His step dad did the special effects. His mom was a professional chef that made food for commercials like KFC.

... and she looked fantastic!

It always reminds me of a seat cover in a car I had once. I tell you...it looks like the same fabric :-)

[katana]

Very cool. The movie was excellent but reading the book gave me chills on a hot summer day. Visitors to D.C. are still visiting the steps in Georgetown.

[Salvation]

I thought it was a sofa cover material. LOL!

[wally_bert]

It would have done well in the Soviet Union.

I can’t help but think of the 80s Wendy’s commercial.

[Flick Lives]

LOL!

[Cuttnhorse]

I live in Idaho and I am wondering how the heck did they remove, “FAMOUS POTATOES”, the Idaho State logo, from Hillary’s jacket???

[Flick Lives]

OMG! I have to keep from laughing on the bus; people will think I’m crazy!

[HotKat]

Horse blanket

[MagnoliaB]

I remember that commercial! LOL I’m sure now it would be considered stereotyping and not PC.

[wally_bert]

It’s still quite memorable and very non-PC. I’m glad someone held on to it.

[MagnoliaB]

I know exactly what movie that is from just from the picture.

[fella]

It's not how much a woman pays for the clothes it's more about how she wears them.

[HotKat]

It looks like she wears a lot of ivory.
