First lady Melania Trump chose not to break from her own fashion tradition, channeling her official White House portrait for the first State of the Union address of President Donald Trump's second term.
Fresh off the theatrical release of her documentary "Melania" last month, the first lady donned a tieless dark suit, black belt and matching heels as she joined her family to watch the speech on Tuesday, Feb. 24. The first lady is thought to translate cryptic messages with her public wardrobe, a theory formed during her husband's first term in office.
The first lady invited two students, Sierra Burns and Everest Nevraumont, who represent her "Be Best, Fostering the Future" initiative, according to Fox News.

Released one week after her husband's swearing-in last year, Trump's official portrait features a black-and-white photograph of the first lady leaning on a desk and staring directly into the camera. In the photograph, she is wearing a button-down shirt without a tie and a dark suit.
