Jeff Bezos' Fiancée Lauren Sanchez Reacts to Inauguration Outfit ...
Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek's network of contributors
Jeff Bezos' fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, is ignoring the fashion naysayers.
Sachez, 55, attended President Trump's inauguration ceremony on Monday, January 20, with the Amazon CEO by her side. The former journalist donned an all-white look that featured a lace top under a low cut white blazer with matching pants — the bold outfit sent the internet into a frenzy.
While Sanchez has not directly responded to the controversy, she liked a few comments about the outfit left on one of her Instagram posts from Monday. The post featured photos of herself in her gown for the Starlight Ball (one of Trump's many inaugural balls.)
The former entertainment reporter liked one user's comment, which read, "THAT GIRL ???? don't let the haters bring you down! Only opinion that matters is your own and Jeff's ????."
"You look absolutely stunning and early today at the inauguration.❤️???? You are truly an inspiration to me and I'm sure to Many Women," read another comment Sanchez liked.
Despite the positive feedback, Sanchez also received further criticism for her inauguration fashion choice on the post.
"usually love her outfits but the inauguration was a massive failure ... the outfit looked trashy .. i think lauren usually has more class," one person admitted.
Another individual wrote, "Her inauguration outfit was highly inappropriate for a state event. Strange to@say the least- doesn't she have a stylist ???"
"Why wear that white blazer. It wasn't necessary," somebody else commented.
The former Extra correspondent's choice of dress wasn't the only one scrutinized by the internet — President Trump's wife, Melania Trump also made waves due to her hat choice.
The 54-year-old first lady donned a large, wide-brimmed black hat with a white stripe. Many people, including late night host Jimmy Fallon, compared Melania's look to The Hamburglar's.
In his opening monologue for Monday's episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the 50-year-old TV personality wore a hat that resembled Melania's and joked, "Who wore it better, me Melania or the hamburglar?"
