Melania Trump just wore a spring-ready skirt suit | Royal | News

Once considered a slightly dated staple, the two-piece has had a major resurgence. Her look was bespoke by designer Adam Lippes – and almost certainly worth thousands. Though this exact outfit isn’t for sale, just a quick browse of Lippes’ other designs shows you price points well into the thousands. The designer has several matching sets available to buy, with tops and skirts retailing from £830 each. So for the full set, you’re looking at £1,660.

So naturally, we went straight to the high street to find something that delivers the same feel without the eye-watering price tag – and this Coast co-ord (sold separately) is a standout.

While it’s not an exact match, it beautifully channels the same elevated aesthetic. The jacket is where the magic really happens – cut close to the body with a softly cinched waist, it creates that hourglass silhouette without feeling restrictive. The curved lapel adds a subtle softness, while the button detailing keeps it looking polished and put-together.

Then there’s the skirt. A sleek, midi-length design, it skims the body in all the right places without clinging, offering that perfect balance between structure and movement. The slight flare at the hem gives it a fluid finish, making it feel elegant rather than overly formal – exactly what you want from a modern skirt suit.

This is the kind of outfit that works just as well for a wedding guest look as it does for a day at the races. Styled with heels and a clutch, it leans into that refined, occasionwear feel. But you could just as easily tone it down with a simple top and flats for a more relaxed look.

Available in sizes 10 to 18, it’s already proving popular – with several sizes selling out fast, which says everything about just how in-demand this look is right now. This also comes in a chic champagne and white colour.

Serving up the same butter yellow polish Melania Trump championed at the White House, this co-ord leans into that clean, tailored aesthetic but with a lighter, more relaxed edge for summer.

The sleeveless top, crafted from a breathable, lightweight fabric blend, keeps things fresh and easy, while the matching midi skirt flows effortlessly for a softer take on her structured silhouette. It still hits that regal note – just without the heavy tailoring, making it feel a touch more wearable for everyday occasions. The top is available in sizes 6 to 24, while the skirt runs from 8 to 20.

Tapping into that same butter-yellow moment, Melania championed this pairing, which delivers a softer, more relaxed take on her polished White House look. The slim-fit shirt, made from breathable cotton, keeps things crisp yet effortless, and comes in sizes 6 to 22, plus a range of colourways including a failsafe white.

Paired with the flowing linen skirt – available in petite, regular and long cuts, and sizes 4 to 22. It brings that easy, summer-ready movement you just don’t get with structured tailoring. Sold separately, the two pieces still mirror Melania’s refined aesthetic, just dialled down into something a little more wearable for everyday.
