During her recent trip to Asia, First Lady Melania Trump was photographed in numerous stylish outfits, but there is one dress that stood out more than the rest. Melania escorted husband President Donald Trump to a state dinner in Seoul with South Korea's President Moon Jae-In, and the gown she donned was quite unique. She wore a gorgeous blue J. Mendel dress with lace and sheer detailing throughout. The actual gown is pretty pricey, but we've found a few alternative looks for you to buy that give off the same chic vibes, have lace, and are equally beautiful.
J. Mendel Metallic Lace Long Sleeve Gown
The first lady's showstopping gown is a navy variation on J. Mendel's Metallic Lace Long Sleeve Baroque Gown ($4,900) from the designer's Fall 2017 collection.
Adriana Papell Illusion Yoke Lace Gown
If you'd like a little more color in your gown, try this Adriana Papell Illusion Yoke Lace Gown ($244, originally $349). It is stunning and has a beautiful purple hue for Fall.
Eliza J Embellished Gown
This Eliza J Embellished Gown ($238) might not be lace and sheer throughout, but it is dramatic and so pretty. Just look at that shape — it'll look good on anyone, not just the first lady.
Marina Long Sleeve Dress in Lace
If simple and sheer are your favorite party dress requirements, then the Marina Long Sleeve Dress in Lace With Glitter ($66-$169) is your perfect fit.
John Zack Tall Over Lace Top Maxi Dress
Hello, gorgeous! We want this John Zack Tall Over Lace Top Maxi Dress ($69) in every color imaginable. It's a statement look that won't break the bank, and it has a sexy open back, too.
Alex Evenings Lace Midi Dress
Not all sophisticated dresses have to be floor-length. Take this Alex Evenings Lace Midi Dress ($189), for example; it's stunning and it shows a little leg for an added hint of sexy.
Betsey Johnson Lace Dress
This fiery number comes in four colors and is basically a shorter version of Melania's gown. We'd wear this Betsey Johnson Lace Dress ($148) for date night or to a party any day.
