Thom Browne would be open to working with first lady Melania Trump. “I think it’s unfortunate, the response that the current first lady [Melania Trump] got from designers in regards to dressing her,” he said in an interview with Surface magazine in June 2017. After the election, notable designers like Tom Ford, Marc Jacobs and Sophie Theallet declared they wouldn’t dress Melania Trump (though Ford’s reasoning was based on Trump’s personal image, rather than political reasoning). Designer Stefano Gabbana of Dolce & Gabbana regularly dresses Melania and Ivanka Trump and praises their outfits on Instagram. Designer Tommy Hilfiger said just a few days after the 2016 election he would be “proud” to dress Melania.
