Kellyanne Conway tries a fashion revolution — and fails

Kellyanne Conway on Inauguration Day.

Amid the pageantry of Inauguration Day, the fashion cannot be overlooked. Melania Trump, in a powder blue Ralph Lauren suit and matching gloves, seems to be channeling Jackie Kennedy on this cloudy Friday. Michelle Obama has donned a simple burgundy midi dress and matching wool coat. Hillary Clinton arrived in striking (and perhaps symbolic) head-to-toe white.

Kellyanne Conway decided to go in, well, a different stylistic direction. The senior adviser to Donald Trump arrived at the Inauguration wearing a $3,600 Gucci red, white, and blue ensemble, trimmed with buttons shaped like cats. Yes, cats. Conway quipped to reporters that it was “Trump Revolutionary Wear.” Indeed, it did blaze a unique trail. In addition to the belted, patriotic coat, Conway wore a red cloche hat and red gloves. Given the color combination, she could have worn a Make America Great Again baseball cap and called it a day.
