Melania Trump wears polka dots, white shirt dress
Browne's eponymous luxury brand is another must-have for the mom of Barron Trump: in 2018, during President Donald Trump's first term, the British fashion designer said publicly that he respected her "as the First Lady and (dressing her) is something that I would respect."
Melania Trump wears bold floral pants, bright pink heels
On Thursday, July 3, Trump visited patients at the Children's National Hospital in Washington, wearing a seasonally trendy Gabriela Hearst polka dot blouse paired with a color-coordinated ivory pencil skirt and ballet flats from Roger Vivier.
Last month, Trump's fashion choices took a turn when she sported Dolce and Gabbana peony-print cotton jacquard pants and pink suede Manolo Blahnik pumps while greeting guests during a White House event.
With summer nearly underway, Trump wore the outfit as dozens flocked to the White House South Lawn for the 2025 Congressional Picnic.
Trump's fashion choices, which are thought to reveal subtle hints about her mood and inner-most thoughts, are the subject of intense public interest in the same vein as Jacqueline "Jackie" Kennedy Onassis and Michelle Obama.
On Jan. 20, she emerged in a dark navy silk wool coat and skirt with an ivory silk crepe blouse designed by Adam Lippes for her husband's second inauguration ceremony.
The former fashion model -- and first practicing Catholic to serve as first lady since Jackie Kennedy -- also made headlines when she attended the April funeral service of Pope Francis in a double-breasted coat dress paired with a traditional veil, gloves and black stilettos.

Israel launches airstrikes targeting Yemen's Houthi-controlled ports
Israel 's military launched airstrikes early on Monday targeting ports and facilities held by Yemen 's Houthi rebels, with the rebels responding with missile fire targeting Israel. The attacks came after an attack on Sunday targeting a Liberian-flagged ship in the Red Sea that caught fire and took on water, later forcing its crew to abandon the vessel. Suspicion for the attack on the Greek-owned bulk carrier Magic Seas immediately fell on the Houthis, particularly as a security firm said it appeared bomb-carrying drone boats hit the ship after it was targeted by small arms and rocket-propelled grenades. The rebels' media reported on the attack but did not claim it. A renewed Houthi campaign against shipping could again draw in US and Western forces to the area, particularly after president Donald Trump targeted the rebels in a major airstrike campaign. The ship attack comes at a sensitive moment in the Middle East, as a possible ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war hangs in the balance and as Iran weighs whether to restart negotiations over its nuclear program following American airstrikes targeting its most sensitive atomic sites amid an Israeli war against the Islamic Republic. Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu was also traveling to Washington to meet with Mr Trump. The Israeli military said it struck Houthi-held ports at Hodeida, Ras Isa and Salif, as well as the Ras Kanatib power plant. 'These ports are used by the Houthi terrorist regime to transfer weapons from the Iranian regime, which are employed to carry out terrorist operations against the state of Israel and its allies,' the Israeli military said. The Israeli military also said it struck the Galaxy Leader, a vehicle-carrying vessel that the Houthis seized back in November 2023 when they began their attacks in the Red Sea corridor over the Israel- Hamas war. 'Houthi forces installed a radar system on the ship and have been using it to track vessels in the international maritime arena to facilitate further terrorist activities,' the Israeli military said. The Bahamas-flagged Galaxy Leader was affiliated with an Israeli billionaire. It said no Israelis were on board. The ship had been operated by a Japanese firm NYK Line. The Houthis acknowledged the strikes, but offered no damage assessment from the attack. Their military spokesman, Brig Gen Yahya Saree, claimed its air defense forces 'effectively confronted' the Israelis without offering evidence. The Houthis then responded with an apparent missile attack on Israel. The Israeli military said it attempted to intercept the missile, but it appeared to make impact, though there were no immediate reports of injuries from the attack.

Society ‘struggling' to respond to link between smartphones and youth extremism
In an interview as the 20th anniversary of the July 7 attacks is marked, Jonathan Hall KC said current methods used by extremists to influence potential recruits are 'a million miles' from the tactics used in the run up to 2005. Suicide bombers Mohammed Sidique Khan, 30, Shehzad Tanweer, 22, Hasib Hussain, 18, and Jermaine Lindsay, 19, set off bombs on three Tube trains and a bus, killing 52 people in the single worst terrorist atrocity on British soil. Ringleader and recruiter Khan appeared to be a pillar of the community, steering local youths away from crime and drugs by organising outdoor activities and helping to set up a gym in a mosque basement, but was in reality a fanatic. Mr Hall told the PA news agency the wide availability of smartphones has transformed radicalisation since then. 'The principal distinction from the era of 7/7 is the smartphone era,' Mr Hall said. 'That has changed the landscape. It has led to a different model of radicalisation. 'With 7/7 the indications were that Mohammad Sidique Khan was grooming people, there was a youth club, they went and did rafting together. 'Those sorts of outdoorsy, in person, group grooming activities, those feel a million miles away from the online world of radicalisation. 'I'm not aware of any sane person who seeks to argue the current wave of very young people becoming involved in terrorism, or extreme violence where it's not ideological, that that's not related to the internet and to the ready availability of smartphones. 'There's a very live debate about the ethics, the legality and the practicalities of which response is best. 'But we are absolutely grasping at straws and struggling, at the moment, as a society to work out what the correct response is. 'No one in their right minds would allow their children to allow a stranger into their bedroom, but that's what we've done with phones.' The attacks exposed the deadly threat from homegrown terrorists with 'appalling clarity', Mr Hall said. 'What 7/7 did, is it revealed with appalling clarity that our fellow citizens are willing to kill us. 'That very unsettling insight is as true today as it was back then, except you now have to bring in British citizens who have been inspired by extreme right-wing ideology to join the predominant Islamist threat. 'But that was the real kicker from 7/7. I think it really brought home this idea of the homegrown threat.' Commander Dominic Murphy said July 7 was 'a seminal moment' for counter-terrorism policing, leading to a series of changes that continued after the five terror attacks in the UK in 2017. He said that while Islamist groups are still the main threat to the UK, right wing terrorism is a growing problem, and there is concern that younger people are being drawn into extremism. In 2024, 39 of the 248 people arrested for terrorism offences were aged 17 and under, while children aged 11 to 15 made up the largest proportion of those referred to anti-extremism scheme Prevent (2,729 out of 6,884). 'Islamist remains our main threat. We do see a growing right-wing terrorist problem,' Mr Murphy said. 'We're increasingly seeing younger people involved in that right-wing threat as well, which is deeply concerning for us. 'But of course, we also see people that don't have a clear or fixed ideology. 'We can't say clearly that they're an Islamist terrorist, we can't say clearly that they ascribe to a right-wing ideology. 'Nonetheless, they're consuming large amounts of violent media online, and they might have a mixed or unclear ideology – that means, of course, we still need to be concerned about the threat to the public. 'It's diversified a lot even since 2017 and I think the online environment and the world environment adds a whole new layer of challenge to the threat that we face.'
