The First Lady was joined by Brigitte Macron as they walked down the red carpet, in front of their husbands to attend a French-American commemoration ceremony for D-Day at the American cemetery of Colleville-sur-Mer in Normandy today.

Melania, 49, looked sombre in all black, keeping it simple with a mid-length buttoned black coat dress and black stilettos, adding dark sunglasses to her look.

The First Lady kept her glamorous locks down as she made her way down the red carpet as guards held American and French flags.

Brigitte Macron walked beside Melania, looking elegant dressed in a mid length cream dress and matching cream coat. 

Melania and her husband will later travel to D-Day beach Omaha for the commemorations, where they will also meet veterans. Melania was pictured in the same outfit this morning as she made her way on board Air Force One at Shannon Airport with her husband.  

President Trump tweeted as he prepared to leave his Irish hotel for France, saying: ‘A big and beautiful day today!’

Theresa May joined the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall at Bayeux Cathedral this morning along with 300 British D-Day veterans for a service of remembrance. 

In Portsmouth, following President Donald Trump’s visit yesterday, a veteran’s parade will take place before a memorial service at the city’s D-Day Stone.

And in London, Prince Harry will attend Founder’s Day at the Royal Hospital Chelsea where he will see the Chelsea Pensioners and six veterans from the Normandy Landings.

Paratroopers aged in their 90s jumped from Dakota war planes over Normandy yesterday afternoon as they re-enacted the bravery of soldiers who were central to the decisive landings.

About 280 took part in the jump over the French coast yesterday, including veterans of landings in World War II. Harry Read, 95, was pictured leaping from the skies and landing in Sannerville in front of crowds of admirers.

Aircraft were pictured taking to the skies in Cambridgeshire, at the Imperial War Museum, before heading to France to commemorate those who died in the fighting on June 6 1944.

The First Lady was a vision in cream on Wednesday as she arrived in Portsmouth with her husband Donald Trump for the D-Day 75th anniversary commemorations

The First Lady was a vision in cream yesterday morning as she arrived in Portsmouth with her husband Donald Trump for the D-Day 75th anniversary commemorations.

Melania opted for chic neutral shades for the sombre occasion, with a full length wool coat from luxurious fashion label The Row and an elegant asymmetric Philip Treacy disc hat worn at an angle.

She previously wore the demure coat, with a belted waist and wide lapel, to the 2017 Secretary of State’s International Women of Courage Award. Coats from the brand’s collection can sell for up to £4,800 ($6,100).

Melania swept her glamorous locks into an elegant, understated bun and opted for subtle smokey eye make-up and a slick of pale pink lipgloss.

The First Lady expertly navigated the steps as she alighted the helicopter in towering nude stiletto heels to greet her husband, who looked dapper in a blue suit and a striped tie.

The couple will join the Queen and Prince Charles at Southsea Common to commemorate the day during World War II on which Allied forces invaded northern France via beach landings in Normandy.

On Tuesday night the First Lady joined her husband at an intimate 60-person black tie dinner at the official residence of the US Ambassador, Winfield House in Regent’s Park.

Melania has made London her catwalk for a range of designer outfits including Burberry, Dolce & Gabbana and Dior, but she saved her best outfit for Winfield House on the second day of the Trump state visit.

The First Lady wowed in a red cape sleeve £5,610 ($7,134) dress by Givenchy. The wool-crepe dress was crafted with a sequin embellished neckline, long cape sleeves and a satin godet insert to finish. 

The couple were joined by Prince Charles, the Duchess of Cornwall, the Prime Minister and officials and dignitaries from both nations for the three-course meal in London, which was held to reciprocate Monday night’s lavish banquet in the Buckingham Palace ballroom.

In contrast to the sophisticated Palace menu, which included steamed halibut and strawberry sable and was served with a £2,000-a-bottle Chateau Lafite – last night’s fare was closer to the heart of the teetotal President with a taste for plain food: beef, potatoes, ice cream, and £30-a-bottle Californian red wine.

It came at the end of a busy day for the President on Tuesday in which he held a joint press conference with Theresa May, met privately with Nigel Farage, and avoided a smaller-than-expected protest in central London.

Melania enjoyed a garden party at Number 10 with the Prime Minister’s husband Philip May, and the pair seemed to get on ‘like a house on fire’ according to a body language expert.

On Monday night, Melania wore a white evening gown from Dior’s spring 2019 collection for the occasion, which was her third outfit of the day. 

The First Lady teamed her cream coat and Philip Treacy hat with nude heels with a pointed toe, while Her Majesty went for a fuscia pink ensemble. Pictured with Donald Trump and the Prince of Wales

Mrs Trump chatted with Suzanne Ircha, wife of the US Ambassador, and Camilla before the meal. Mr Trump famously is a teetotaler who encourages his family and associates not to partake. The Duchess however was seen with a glass of wine

Everyone seemed in good spirits in Buckingham Palace tonight as the Queen welcomed Donald Trump and his wife Melania for a state banquet

The beautiful gown skimmed her figure and had a sheer design at the top – which complimented Melania’s skin tone. Her hair was styled in a stylish bun and she wore her usual smoky eye and minimal jewelery.

She looked relaxed and happy as she shook hands with and rubbed shoulders with members of the royal family including Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cambridge.

Upon landing in the UK, she sported a very stylish Burberry pussy blouse and Michael Kors skirt suit, before changing into a white number from Dolce and Gabbana – an apparent tribute to the late Princess Diana.
