First lady Melania Trump's white ensemble caught attention Tuesday as she stepped out during President Donald Trump's first official state visit of his presidency.

Melania's suit jacket is from the Michael Kors Collection, the office of the FLOTUS confirmed to ABC News today. The jacket appears to be Kors' double crepe-sablé draped blazer, priced at $2,195, from the designer's Spring 2018 collection. The wide-brimmed hat was designed by Hervé Pierre.
