She wore a bright yellow, calf-length Valentino coat complete with a cape, which retailed for $7,700. She didn&#8217;t hold back with her footwear, either. Melania paired the bold outerwear with purple, velvet So Kate heels by Christian Louboutin (the black and nude versions\u00a0sell for $795) that matched her long sleeves.<\/p>\n<p>Several social media users were fans of the colorful look, despite its hefty price tag. &#8220;Style was perfect.

Melania Trump? She slips into a $4,000 designer skirt\u00a0and sky-high heels. In 2018, the political figure was photographed planting a tree in the White House grounds in a flouncy, yellow, high-waisted floral skirt from Valentino. She clearly wasn&#8217;t too worried about her shoes getting dirty, either. The beauty opted for pale pink Christian Louboutin shoes, with a similar pair selling direct from the retailer for $945.<\/p>\n<p>But while the first lady looked polished, fans had a lot to say about the clothing that didn&#8217;t really fit the occasion. &#8220;Who wears 3-4&#8243; stilettos when planting a tree \u2014 asking for a friend?&#8221; one person wrote on X. &#8220;Stilettos and a dress&#8230; really?&#8221; another asked.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"news-article\">\n<h2 class=\"\">Melania Trump&#8217;s daring, floral coat was worth $51,000<\/h2>\n<div class=\"slide-key image-holder gallery-image-holder credit-image-wrap \" data-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1802711\/lavish-melania-trump-outfits-jaw-dropping-price-tags\/\" data-post-title=\"5 Lavish Melania Trump Outfits That Had Jaw-Dropping Price Tags\" data-slide-num=\"3\" data-post-id=\"1802711\">\n                                             <picture id=\"p7ad45d8f1dc913e9573d4480a99b7f2b\"><source media=\"(min-width: 429px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/5-lavish-melania-trump-outfits-that-had-jaw-dropping-price-tags\/melania-trumps-daring-floral-coat-was-worth-51000-1740699119.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><source media=\"(max-width: 428px)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/img\/gallery\/5-lavish-melania-trump-outfits-that-had-jaw-dropping-price-tags\/melania-trumps-daring-floral-coat-was-worth-51000-1740699119.sm.webp\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"gallery-image \" src=\"https:\/\/www.women.com\/1802711\/lavish-melania-trump-outfits-jaw-dropping-price-tags\/\" data-post-id=\"1802711\" data-slide-num=\"3\" data-slide-title=\"5 Lavish Melania Trump Outfits That Had Jaw-Dropping Price Tags: Melania Trump&#039;s daring, floral coat was worth $51,000\" width=\"780\" height=\"438\" alt=\"Melania Trump smiling in a floral coat\" title=\"\"><br \/>\n                    <\/source><\/source><\/picture>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"columns-holder \">\n<p>It&#8217;s hard to imagine how a coat could cost $51,000 unless it&#8217;s literally made of $100 bills, but Melania Trump showed us how stylish the super pricey piece could be in 2017. She attended the G7 Summit in Italy in the lavish\u00a0Dolce &amp; Gabbana outerwear,\u00a0which featured textured floral embellishments. The coat was so prestigious it required a $25,750 deposit\u00a0before purchase.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Melania completed the look with a Dolce &amp; Gabbana purse priced at $1,630, which, not including her white dress or pointed-toe shoes, put her outfit&#8217;s cost at $52,630.

She added a chunky black belt and what looked like Manolo Blahnik\u00a0BB Black Patent Pointed Toe Pumps, priced at $825. But it was her timeless top-handle bag that really hiked up this ensemble&#8217;s price tag.
