The Trumps’ much-anticipated trip to the UK is well underway, with the American President and First Lady hosted for dinner by British Prime Minister Theresa May and her husband at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire just outside of London on Friday. On Saturday, amid massive anti-Trump protests in the British capital, POTUS and FLOTUS made their way to Windsor Castle for a meeting with Her Majesty the Queen.

The First Lady donned a tailored skirt suit from Christian Dior for the occasion. The suit—a custom take on a Pre-Fall designed by the French house’s creative director, Maria Grazia Chiuri—featured an asymmetric closure. The silhouette recalled the styles favored by First Lady Jackie Kennedy in the early 1960s, indeed Trump has referenced Kennedy as a style influence in the past. As for Her Majesty, she appeared resplendent, easily standing head and shoulders above her guests in the fashion department with a paisley jacquard topcoat worn over a cornflower yellow and light blue floral print dress and a matching hat.
