Donald Trump, Melania Are 'Most Stylish President And First Lady', Not Barack And Michelle Obama: Ex-White House Adviser

Donald Trump and his wife Melana Trump are more "stylish" than any other president and first lady in recent history, including Barack and Michelle Obama, former White House adviser Stephen Miller has claimed.

During a recent appearance on "Hannity," Trump's former White House director of speechwriting described the GOP 2024 presidential candidate as a trendsetter who has influenced American fashion since his "The Apprentice" days.

"The most stylish president and first lady in our lifetimes are Donald Trump and Melania Trump," Miller told Sean Hannity after the Fox News host slammed a New York Times article describing President Joe Biden as "dapper."

"Donald Trump's a style icon. He changed American fashion in 'The Apprentice.' People spent the next 10 years trying to dress like Donald Trump," Miller continued. "So if anybody deserves a puff piece on their sense of style, it's Donald Trump and the First Lady."

Many on X, formerly Twitter, however, disagreed with Miller's views and insisted that the Obamas were more deserving of the title "style icons" than the Trumps.

"The real style icons were the Obamas," one person declared.

"Trump: blue suit, red tie. Big deal. If you want a presidential style icon, look to Obama, and Michelle put Melania to shame not just in fashion but in class and her actions as first lady," another X user wrote.

"Obama in his tan suit was more stylish than Trump could ever be," another commented.

A fourth user shared photos of some of the Obamas' iconic looks, writing: "Many others were stylish, but nobody beat The Obamas."

Despite Miller's assertion, Trump's style choices, particularly his signature boxy business suit and long red tie, have earned him criticism from a number of fashion experts over the years.

Shao Yang, founder of New York-based custom clothier and alteration house The Tailory, told the New York Times in 2016 that while Trump's suits were "expensive," they were not flattering.

"I don't think he's very modern with his dress. It's making him look a lot shorter and a lot wider," Yang explained.

Meanwhile, Patrick Grant, creative director of Savile Row-inspired fashion label E. Tautz, once described Trump's "pendulous" tie as "deeply phallic."

"Worn with his Tony Soprano-cut suit, it shouts ultraconservative -- with a hint of sexual menace," Grant told Pop Sugar.

Trump's wife, on the other hand, has been praised for her looks during his presidency and the rare public appearances she's made after leaving the White House.

While some of Melania's style choices sparked controversy in the past -- such as the "I really don't care do U?" Zara jacket she wore to a visit to a child detention center in 2018 -- her more recent outfits left supporters impressed.

In February, Melania was photographed looking chic in a "Sheryl Tie Neck" black jumpsuit by Ralph Lauren as she accompanied her husband to a gala in their private Florida club Mar-a-Lago.

Melania also stunned last month in a white Alexander McQueen shirtdress featuring a large black orchid, a skinny black belt, and black pumps.

She paired the look with black sunglasses and a Chanel top handle bag.

Trump supporters may be able to see more of Melania's style choices in the coming months as she appears to be ramping up her public appearances amid her husband's 2024 campaign.

Most recently, the former first lady hosted a fundraiser for the Log Cabin Republicans at Mar-a-Lago Saturday.
