The White House is suffering an epidemic of bad fashion
Kaitlan Collins took the position of chief White House correspondent for CNN during President Donald Trump’s second term in office. Since then, she’s made a splash with her sassy remarks — Trump called her a “nasty person” on stage because Collins was pressing him — and her polished, stylish apparel. The chevron shirt was a rare exception for the otherwise stylish Collins, which is why it surprised us.
Still, others in and around the White House seem to really struggle with finding clothing that’s both sophisticated and politically professional. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has worn many outfits that have missed the mark. Former press secretary, now governor of Arkansas Sarah Huckabee Sanders is another person who is constantly wearing outdated trends. Trump’s second term in the White House seems to precipitate fashion fails.
When it comes to Collins, she can usually change that sartorial tone. On March 16, 2025, she shared a photo to Instagram of her black, strapless evening dress, and her look was contemporary yet elegant. “You have the most beautiful clothes! Your suits are to die for,” one fan wrote, referencing Collin’s workplace fashion. “Elegant, sophisticated, gorgeous, and intelligent,” another person added. “Love you and what you are doing in your reporting, and btw you have great style too Kaitlin,” a third wrote. Clearly, this fashion fail was an outlier.
