Melania Trump usually grabs the headlines when it comes to style choices for events she attends, but the First Lady was upstaged by White House Communications Director Hope Hicks who decided to wear a tuxedo instead of a dress.
This isn’t really news, but since most media publications are fixated on it, we thought it should be mentioned.

White House’s Hope Hicks wore a tuxedo to Japan state dinner | Fox News
The 29-year-old surprised some at the dinner – put on by Japan’s government for President Trump during his current visit – by ditching her usual colorful dresses for a sharp black-and-white tuxedo and slouchy bow tie.
Twitter users have been enjoying the androgynous look, which Hicks dressed up with a feminine pink lip and smoky eye.

Hicks stepped up the traditional tux with an oversized bow-tie, adding a smokey eye and a pink lip for an extra layer of glamour, making the night look more like a scene out of Ocean’s Eight than a state dinner with Donald Trump. Hicks has made a point of staying out of the spotlight, despite her high-profile job. While she serves as the communications director, it’s rare to hear her, well, communicate. Unlike counselor and Hicks antithesis, Kellyanne Conway, Hicks typically keeps to written statements and memos, an unusual and frankly puzzling move for someone in the press-happy administration.
Some think Hope Hicks “upstaged” Melania Trump at a state dinner
Members of the Trump administration joined the president on a two-week foreign policy trip throughout Asia, starting in Japan. The president golfed with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe while the first lady spent time with Japanese First Lady Akie Abe visiting children at a school.
At one part of the trip, the Trumps attended a state dinner host by Abe at Akasaka Palace. There, many complimented the first lady’s stunning red gown. But the compliments soon turned into comparisons as Hicks went with her own stunning choice… a tuxedo.
Final Thoughts
I am not a fan of “cross-dressing” but this is nothing of the sort. She’s making a fashion statement, one that may be a bit risque in conservative circles but that really isn’t the international affair some in the media are painting it as. She wore a tux. Big deal.
