President- elect Donald Trump attempts to kiss soon-to-be first lady Melania as he enters the swearing -in ceremony for his inauguration

As President Donald Trump entered the U.S. Capitol Rotunda to be sworn into office on Monday, he moved to kiss the cheek of his wife Melania but was blocked by a wide-brimmed hat that the First Lady wore throughout the entirety of Inauguration Day.

Melania Trump's large hat was an obstacle for Donald Trump as the president went in for a kiss at the inauguration today.

The returning first lady and Barron Trump, the son she had once shielded from the public eye, used Monday’s inauguration to reintroduce themselves.

Now there's a $MELANIA meme coin to go with the $TRUMP cryptocurrency meme coin. Both coin prices rose to generate billions of dollars.

With her eyes almost entirely obscured by the rim of her wool boater-style hat, Melania Trump stood next to president-elect Donald Trump on stage at the inauguration ceremony as he pledged the oath of allegiance.

Her sharply tailored look was a striking contrast from the ensemble she crafted for the inauguration in 2017. Melania Trump has a new look.

The inaugural hat was like nothing so much as the broad-brimmed white hat Mrs. Trump wore during a state visit by French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife in 2018, which likewise made waves and which she auctioned off in 2022 as an “iconic broad-brimmed one-of-a-kind hat.” Her reference was herself.

Incoming first lady Melania Trump has launched her own cryptocurrency on the eve of her husband, President-elect Donald Trump, being inaugurated and days after he announced his own memecoin.

Melania Trump is wearing another buzzworthy inauguration outfit: a striped navy hat and matching coat. Her 2016 inauguration outfit, a blue high-neck dress, drew comparisons to former first lady Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

From the design process, to a shipping mishap, to the inauguration stage, here's how Melania Trump's hat was made.
