Ivanka Trump’s gown at the 2025 Liberty Inaugural Ball sparked debate online. Inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s iconic dress in *Sabrina* (1954), the Givenchy creation featured black floral embroidery, a subtle train, black opera gloves, and a diamond choker. The look, paired with a sleek chignon, drew comparisons to Hepburn’s timeless style.
Supporters, including Hepburn’s son Sean Ferrer, praised the tribute as elegant and fitting for the occasion. Critics, however, argued the gown lacked Hepburn’s original finesse and felt her values clashed with the Trump family’s politics.
Though Ivanka won’t hold a role in Donald Trump’s second administration, her fashion choice reignited discussions about her influence and style. What’s your verdict—elegant homage or misstep?
