The President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, accompanied by First Lady Melania Trump, is currently in the UK for an official State Visit as the guests of the King and Queen. On September 18, 2025, the Princess of Wales and First Lady Melania Trump toured the gardens of Frogmore Cottage on the Windsor Estate, where they met with Chief Scout Dwayne Fields and members of the Scouts’ Squirrels programme.
For this outdoor engagement, First Lady Melania Trump wore a suede safari jacket by Ralph Lauren, paired with stone-colored trousers from Loro Piana. The Princess of Wales, who has been Joint President of the Scout Association, wore a chocolate brown A-line midi skirt, a cropped khaki jacket by ME + EM, and a knit vest by the same brand.
Too much volume on Catherine with the bow and skirt. Melania Trump is spot on day in the park outfit.
ReplyDeleteon another Frogmore cottage is where Prince Andrew resides, this background will only bring back Epstein stories that the Trumps are trying to avoid!
I think that's just a bit of a stretch. Fortunately neither of the ladies seem to find the location problematic.
DeleteNo, prince Andrew ilves on Royal Lodge.
Deleteofcourse the ladies have no problem with the location, its the media that creates the unfavourable story
DeleteAnon16:24. No. The event was held on the grounds of Frogmore House (not the Cottage!), and this is also not where the Duke of York lives. He lives a little more "down the road" at Royal Lodge! Different locations. Further apart. Please inform yourself a little better before stating anything of that sort.
Delete@DSC: Thank you for clarifying that.
DeleteWhen I think of Frogmore House, I also think of the images from Prince Harry and Meghan's wedding, when they drove up the long driveway in Windsor in a blue Aston Martin to the reception. Meghan wore a beautiful Stella McCartney dress. I also remember the many photos in the media of the aquamarine ring that Diana used to wear and which Meghan was wearing.
Anonymous 18/9/25 19:17. Yeah, in regards to the media…..I have heard enough insults from the British media towards my president Mr. Trump I’m quite turned off by UK at the moment. I hope that the media does not represent the real people.
DeleteJe trouve Mme Trump vêtue de manière appropriée et élégante. Avec elle, l’élégance est « quasi » toujours au rendez-vous !
ReplyDelete-Astrid.
It is Frogmore House, not Cottage.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely correct!
DeleteOh my , oh my, Melania, we have the same jackets, can't believe it!!
ReplyDeleteMine has fringes on the front but the rest is identical, including the same cognac colour.
Both ladies look wonderful and the children are adorable.
Love Melania's slim trousers, Catherine's hunter green jacket/ blouse and dark chocolate skirt as well.
What a gorgeous brown palette, so on trend!!
Both ladies' hair is beautifully styled.
Great to see the two ladies interacting in such a relaxed, easy going way.
Well done👍👏👏
Love the Bow Blouse. Very nice
ReplyDeleteMelania's RL jacket is very 'pockety". It would be functional if you have a lot of stuff to carry. You don't need a purse with so many large size pockets. Kate's is the exact opposite- very minimal especially in length. Interesting that both ladies opted for suede. I would love to see both of these ladies cut their hair to shoulder length. I think their hairstyles look too messy. Kate actually makes Melania (a very tall woman) look short in these pictures.
ReplyDeleteI noticed the height difference too. I guess the choice of footwear will explain it: Melania is in flat shoes whereas Kate is wearing serious heels. Melania is taller than Kate.
DeleteBoth jackets are beautiful and both ladies are well dressed. However, would have preferred a simple shirt or turtleneck on Kate rather than that bow blouse.
The FL looks great in this fitted jacket, ankle pants and cute flats. Very appropriate. I don’t have words for the PoW outfit because none of it makes sense.
ReplyDeleteI adore Catherine's autumnal color palette. Looks like both ladies greatly enjoyed the open-air event.
ReplyDeleteI think her outfit is beautiful but too dark, a bunrnt orange blouse would look beautiful imo
DeleteBoth look wonderful. I like the rich color combination of Kate's outfit. I don't know that the scarf was necessary. Maybe I would like it more in a different, complimentary color. Melania is dressed down chic. I must say, it looks like these two women get along well. I also think Kate has brought out a side of Melania we don't see often. She looks so happy and comfortable with the children. It is good to see this side of her.
ReplyDeleteThe scarf: I have read some days ago that small/skinny scarfs are back in fashion, some of them even looking like a tie. Catherine visited a mill some days ago and this small scarf was a present to her. I like it anyway, beautiful colour and good with this jacket.
DeleteAgree! I think that feeling so often under scrutiny, both Catherine and Melania enjoy opportunities to share the spotlight and not be the only focus of attention, as here with the children. -- Jane
DeleteNow these are wonderful pictures!
ReplyDeleteMelania est très élégante classe
ReplyDeleteFroufrou
Melania Trump is the fashion winner here. But both ladies seem to enjoy the session. The pictures made me feel good.

The skirt , the jacket, and the bow blouse grate. Catherine is so nice
ReplyDeleteThey both look very much at ease (with each other, but also with the scouts) and seem to really enjoy the event. I like both outfits a lot. Well done.
ReplyDeleteKate's outfit would be much better without that scarf/ bow, whatever it is. The colours are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteWell done ladies.They both look great and seem to enjoy each other's company.
ReplyDeleteI really like the color and suede material of the First Lady’s jacket - perfect for autumn. I like the colors of Catherine’s outfit, but the scarf and billowing skirt worn together cause the overall look to be too voluminous to me. Both ladies look happy, relaxed, and engaged here.

I agree with your comments RW. The First Lady looks great, and I like Catherines jacket. I don't much care for the blouse nor the skirt, though all the colours work very well together. I'd have liked to see Catherine wear jeans or cords with that lovely jacket.

Ralph Lauren has many wonderful clothes!
ReplyDeleteThey are wearing lovely fall colors. Not the best choice of skirt for Catherine.
ReplyDeleteSuperbes toutes les deux mais je préfère le look de Kate dont la veste militaire courte kaki lui va à merveille !
ReplyDeleteThe jacket and skirt the Princess is wearing, I love. Perfect for the Autumn weather. The addition of the silk scarf she wore from the Mill she visited last week, excellent that she utilized it. Hopefully add interest to the Mill, well done to the Princess. Her boots look great, love the color.
ReplyDeleteThe First lady looks splendid, love this RL jacket this is gorgeous, the color is beautiful. She looks very stylish. This outfit was perfect for this visit, which was terrific, well done to both ladies.
