Melania Trump visits Sicily, wears $51,500 designer jacket

May 26, 2017 22:32

Today in Sicily, while US President Donald Trump convened with world leaders at the G7 Summit, the first lady took the opportunity to sightsee with the other spouses -- only she did so in a $51,500 (Rs 33.23 lakh) Dolce & Gabbana jacket.

The "3D flower" jacket is from the Italian design house's fall 2017 ready-to-wear line, and it's not yet available in most stores. However, the luxe retail website, Moda Operandi, has already sold out.

Trump wore the coat on Friday's activities, which included a visit to the Chierici Palace City Hall of Catania. To get there, she and the other spouses were ferried from G7 site Taomarina, via private helicopter.
