    Lauren Sanchez, the 55-year-old fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, has been making headlines recently due to her bold fashion choice at President Donald Trump's 2025 inauguration. On January 20, Sanchez attended the event wearing a white Alexander McQueen pantsuit that featured a low-cut, satin-trimmed blazer and wide-leg trousers. Instead of a traditional blouse, she opted for a white lace bustier, which sparked mixed reactions on social media.

    Many critics took to social media platforms like X to voice their displeasure, calling her outfit "incredibly inappropriate" and "obscene" for a state occasion. Some users joked about her revealing look, with one quipping, "Maybe she can get one from Amazon same day shipping." However, others defended Sanchez's fashion choice, comparing her to First Lady Melania Trump, who wore a more traditional and modest navy Adam Lippes coat to the event.

    Fashion historian Summer Anne Lee from the Fashion Institute of Technology expressed her surprise at the outfit, calling it a first for inauguration fashion history. "I gasped when I saw it," Lee said. "I imagine this revealing lingerie moment has got to be a 'first' in inauguration fashion history, even if she is just an attendee and not a part of the ceremony."

    The event also saw other tech titans, including Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, who was seated next to Sanchez. A photo of Zuckerberg seemingly ogling Sanchez's outfit went viral, sparking additional comments on social media. "Zuckerberg was out of control ogling Jeff Bezos' fiancée!" one user exclaimed.

    Following the inauguration, Sanchez attended the Starlight Ball, one of the three post-inauguration events, dressed in a peach-colored Dolce & Gabbana gown. She posted photographs from the event on Instagram, which received thousands of likes and comments. Notably, Mark Zuckerberg's name appeared in the likes column, prompting further trolling online.

    Sanchez has since responded to the criticism directed at her bold appearance. On January 26, she reshared an enigmatic quote about making people "feel good" on her Instagram Stories. "People feel good about themselves make other people feel good too. Turns out the opposite is also true. Remember that," the quote read.

    The criticism has not seemed to affect Sanchez, with a source telling Page Six that "she does what she wants." However, journalist Megyn Kelly blasted Sanchez on The Megyn Kelly Show, accusing her of looking "like a hooker" during Trump's oath ceremony. "Have some dignity and some respect for your circumstances," Kelly said. "No one should be talking about your t**s," she added, calling the fashion choice "absurd."

    Overall, Lauren Sanchez's bold fashion choice at the 2025 inauguration has sparked significant controversy and attention, making her a central figure in recent news and social media discussions.
