Ivanka Trump Wore A Vintage Roberto Cavalli Dress At Party With Kim Kardashian
Ivanka Trump attended a bat mitzvah in Los Angeles last Sunday wearing a vintage Roberto Cavalli gown.
The bat mitzvah was for Violet Palevsky, the niece of Kim Kardashian's childhood best friend Allison Statter and daughter of her friends Jonathan and Lindsay May Palevsky, according to the Daily Mail.
After the party, the former first daughter took to Instagram to show off her vintage Roberto Cavalli gown through a reel and photos with her husband, Jared Kushner. She also posted an Instagram story where she boasted about her "Vintage Roberto Cavalli" dress, while tagging the designer.
Ivanka's longtime friend, Kim Kardashian, commented on her post and complimented her look, saying, "Last night was so fun! [You] looked amazing!"
Ivanka's black gown, designed with silver-colored embellishments that seemed to resemble the shape of a butterfly's wings, is from Roberto Cavalli's Fall 2006 Ready-To-Wear collection.
The dress was the 43rd outfit among the 53 looks modeled at the Roberto Cavalli runway show at the time.
The collection the gown was from was a mix of "Paul Poiret's silhouettes to the opulence of Léon Bakst's Ballets Russes and the fashion sensibility of London's bright young things in the early 1970s," per Vogue Runway.
Roberto Cavalli is an Italian designer who has "earned a reputation for glamorous, bold prints and using exotic skins" in his namesake luxury fashion company he founded in the 1970s.
The second-born child of Donald Trump isn't only into wearing luxurious fashion pieces. Like Cavalli, she once had a namesake fashion brand, selling jewelry, ready-to-wear clothing and shoes.
However, she decided to shut it down in 2018 to focus full-time on her White House assignment as the former adviser to the U.S. president and to avoid conflicts of interest.
Years before Ivanka started her fashion brand, she traveled the world as a model for the likes of Vivienne Westwood and Thierry Mugler in the late 1990s, per Vanity Fair.
Ivanka has always been into fashion. She graced the cover of Seventeen magazine and made her runway debut in 1997.
"I model because I love to model. It's something that I enjoy doing," then-16-year-old Ivanka said.
In 2006, Donald Trump's daughter modeled some sexy styles for the now-defunct men's magazine Stuff.
Ivanka graced the September 2006 cover of the magazine with the headline, "Ivanka Trumps All."
