Melania Trump will take on the role of first lady Friday when Donald Trump is sworn into office as the next president of the United States — and as Washington, D.C., is in a frenzy with celebrations underway, her favorite designers have not been left behind.

The high heel-loving host of “The Five” attended Trump’s Cabinet dinner soiree at the Library of Congress on Wednesday in a purple Zang Toi gown and the Christian Louboutin pumps to match.

“I love his style,” Kimberly previously shared with Footwear News about Toi ahead of hosting a New Year’s Eve countdown show. “He’ll likely dress me for the inaugural ball, and he’s dressed Melania, too.”

Melania has been a longtime fan of both Zang Toi dresses and Christian Louboutin heels. Malaysian-born Toi also produces a line of footwear.

“Melania is stylish and a trendsetter, and we get along well,” Kimberly added.“I’m a big fan of [Ivanka’s] line — she’s an incredible business woman. I’ve known them for 10 years. I’m excited.”
