When Ivanka Trump appeared at the White House this week, she wasn’t the only one turning heads. Her 13-year-old daughter, Arabella, quietly stole the spotlight by stepping out in one of her mother’s cherished dresses—a graceful Emilia Wickstead white midi dress with black buttons and cap sleeves.
It was the very same piece Ivanka wore at a White House event back in 2018, a touching nod that highlighted their mother-daughter bond. The occasion was especially meaningful. Ivanka, joined by her husband Jared Kushner, their three children, and Jared’s parents, celebrated Charles Kushner’s swearing-in as U.S. Ambassador to France and Monaco.
Sharing photos on Instagram, Ivanka called it “a special day with the people we love,” reflecting both the pride and unity of the moment. Arabella’s confident choice of her mother’s dress symbolized more than just fashion—it was a reflection of timeless elegance passed from one generation to the next.
Ivanka has often referred to Arabella as “my little fashionista,” noting her daughter’s eye for style and flair for accessorizing. The rest of the family matched the occasion’s formality. Joseph, 10, wore a sharp gray suit, while Theodore, 8, looked bright in a blue blazer. Together, they presented a polished yet warm family image. In blending tradition, fashion, and family pride, the day highlighted what Ivanka has often said defines her approach: “classic with a modern twist.”
