President Donald Trump presided over a military parade this evening in Washington, D.C., on what is also his 79th birthday.
The event, held to mark the Army’s 250th anniversary, showcased the evolution of the Army, using period uniforms and vintage equipment, including a World War Two-era B-25 bomber.
But the parade was not the only thing catching the eye of viewers.
Because glamorous guests – including Melania Trump and Tiffany Trump – proudly stepped out in effortlessly chic ensembles.
There were some attendees, however, who seemingly missed the mark with a series of fashion faux pas – including Don Jr‘s girlfriend Bettina Anderson.
Here, FEMAIL has rounded up the best and worst looks from today’s event.
BEST DRESSED
Melania Trump rarely puts a foot wrong when it comes to fashion and today was no different. The first lady, 55, commanded attention in a beige pinstripe skirt suit that she paired with pointed-toe grey stilettos. She styled her honey tresses in loose curls that she wore swept forward over one shoulder
Tiffany Trump, 31, who welcomed her first baby – son Alexander – just last month, wowed in a black midi dress that featured statement sleeves and a subtle belt that cinched her in at the waist. She let her signature blonde locks cascade down her chest before accessorizing with metallic gold heels and an Hermes Kelly handbag
JD Vance’s wife Usha, 39, has often been praised for her down to earth dressing – and the parade was no different. Fashion fans were delighted to see the mom-of-three take to the stage in a $79 lace top by popular brand NVLT before adding a pop of color with a burnt orange skirt. She wore her hair pulled back away from her face as she waved to attendees
WORST DRESSED
Don Trump Jr’s girlfriend Bettina Anderson missed the mark with her all-white ensemble. The pleated long-sleeve shirt and skirt combination left the model, 38, looking a little lackluster and somewhat stiff as she took her place on stage. The singular pop of color came from her small red clutch
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, 45, took a risk with his choice of ensemble for the parade in choosing a camouflage neck tie. But the unusual accessory detracted from an otherwise traditionally formal outfit
White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, 68, wore a chic print multi-jacket from Lafayette 148 with a pair of black pants and flat pumps. But her understated ensemble was ruined by her bold choice of sunglasses which caused glaring reflections that distracted many from her prominent viewing spot
