Trump, the daughter of and adviser to President Donald Trump, wore the $1,650 “Follow the Drums” dress, which was designed by Johanna Ortiz. According to W Magazine, Ortiz ― who is from Colombia ― is “known for gravity-defying designs.”

Is Ivanka's dress: made from Kermit? Morphing into a pup tent? The result of climate change? Available with ranch dressing? An entire 1971 living room? Her tribute to dirty money?
