The Worst Outfits At Tiffany Trump's Wedding, Ranked
Among President Donald Trump's children, Tiffany Trump often tends to get overlooked. The daughter of actress Marla Maples is less high-profile than Trump's three children with first wife Ivana Trump or his son Barron, whom he shares with current wife, Melania. When she got married to business executive Michael Boulos in November 2022, it seemed like it was finally Tiffany's turn to snag the spotlight. That is, until every woman in her family seemed determined to upstage her.
Tiffany might have been a whole moment in her glittering Elie Saab gown, which she wore in honor of Boulos' heritage. "It's a Lebanese American wedding, so we were so happy to have Elie Saab create the magic," Maples told People. But Tiffany's gorgeous gown didn't stop several members of her family from stepping out in their own dramatic, eye-catching looks. It's bad form, not to mention cringe-inducing, to attend a wedding wearing a statement look that risks pulling focus from the bride and groom. Celebrities have been known to show up to other people's weddings in inappropriate outfits, but that doesn't excuse these mortifying looks.
5. Marla Maples
Mother-of-the-bride dresses can be a bit dowdy, but not if you're television personality Marla Maples. Like Tiffany Trump, Maples' Greek-inspired dress was designed by Elie Saab and featured a dramatic sash, exposed shoulder, and bold lavender color. She looked glamorous, but that's actually part of the problem, since she really shouldn't be pulling focus during her daughter's wedding. Lavender is also an odd choice for a fall wedding. "It's the extreme Spring pastels in Fall for me," wrote one unimpressed Reddit user. "Like I don't expect much out of these people but you'd think that they would know a seasonal color wheel considering their connections to the fashion industry."
4. Ivanka Trump
Ivanka Trump also looked like a Grecian goddess in her maid-of-honor dress; a pastel-blue, strapless gown with sheer fabric draped around her shoulders. The gown, designed by Galia Lahav, was fine, but was a seriously dramatic statement for someone who wasn't the bride. The gown was an homage to one worn by Grace Kelly in "To Catch a Thief." Especially given its cinematic reference, it gives the impression that Ivanka Trump was perfectly comfortable potentially upstaging her younger half-sister, which is always bad style.
3. Lara Trump
Lara Trump was way too bridal in her silver, jeweled look. In fact, the texture of this dress looked almost identical to the beading on Tiffany Trump's gown, making it a major faux pas, since Laura Trump might've easily been mistaken for the bride. The metallic color and graphic pattern were an oddly futuristic choice, as well. "She looks like an emissary of the Moon People or something," wrote one Reddit commenter. The sheer skirt also felt a little scandalous for such a formal event, since distracting glimpses of leg were readily visible. Meanwhile, the strangely draped sleeves left her looking armless — a strange choice that left many netizens baffled.
2. Kimberly Guilfoyle
Wearing black when someone else is getting married isn't as egregious a faux pas as wearing white, but it's still one of the colors you should avoid wearing to a wedding. It's too harsh and somber for a celebration. But color isn't the only problem with this horribly outdated '80s look that Kimberly Guilfoyle wore to Tiffany Trump's wedding. The black, wing-like sleeves had her looking like some sort of dark angel or maybe an oversized crow, especially with the mysterious piece of fabric hanging at the back that might've been a train, but looked a little too much like a tail.
1. Melania Trump
When it comes to style, the former fashion model-turned-First Lady is no slouch. So when Melania Trump's outfits get people talking for all the wrong reasons, it seems like it must be on purpose. That makes this wedding fashion faux pas look seriously passive aggressive, since Trump wore a casual, nearly white gown to her stepdaughter's wedding. While close examination suggests that this was technically off-white, wedding etiquette rules that guests should avoid anything that might photograph as white and risk pulling focus from the bride. Melania Trump might have tried to turn down the bridal vibes by cinching a narrow gold belt around the waist, but that isn't fooling anyone.
Methodology
In ranking guest looks from Tiffany Trump's wedding, primary consideration was given to the appropriateness of the ensemble. The highest ranked dresses were the ones that most gallingly pulled attention from the bride, and most explicitly violated wedding guest etiquette. Secondary consideration was given to how stylish and flattering the look appeared, with some gowns rating higher due to outdated styles or garish shapes.
