The wife of the American president, Melania Trump, opened the winter holiday season by welcoming the country's main Christmas tree at the White House. The ceremonial event took place at the entrance to the residence and marked the beginning of preparations for the festive decor.
For the event, the First Lady chose an elegant cream Dior coat that highlighted her refined style. The look was complemented by burgundy gloves and Manolo Blahnik shoes with a classic tartan Scottish print — one of the key trends of the season.
The festive tree, over five meters tall, was delivered on a horse-drawn carriage, accompanied by a coachman in a top hat. The fir was grown at Korson's Tree Farms in Michigan, which won the National Christmas Tree Association contest.
Traditionally, the fir will be set up in the Blue Room of the White House, where the lighting ceremony will take place in December. Melania Trump personally oversees the holiday decor of the residence — this year it is particularly significant after the extensive restoration of the east wing of the building.
