Melania Trump Makes Waves as She Flaunts Daring Coats, Shoes and Dresses on Asia Tour

The first lady stood out in lavish dresses and wide-sleeved, colorful coats during the visit.

Melania Trump made a bold fashion statement as she arrived in South Korea Tuesday wearing a deep plum coat with enormous sleeves.

The shoulders had a large pleat and the back was equally sculptural. 

It was designed by Jesus Del Pozo and it was specially ordered from Bergdorf Goodman in New York City. The coat retails for $4,100. 

The coat is tea-length and Mrs. Trump wore contrasting, vivid purple Christian Louboutin pumps.

"First ladies are supposed to represent our country — they have to look their best," Fashion expert Katrina Szish told Inside Edition. "Sometimes paying the price for fashion is a way to do that." 

For the state dinner, she was stunning in a sheer lace dress with appliques.

The first lady's been a fashion plate since she and the president landed in Asia over the weekend. 

She wore a Fendi coat in Japan and a midnight blue Dior dress. She was the lady in red for the state dinner in a Valentino frock, which cost $4,900. 

"What I love about Melania's wardrobe choices is that they are appropriate for the occasion," Szish told Inside Edition.
