President Trump's first year in office has seen style choices turn into political controversies. Racked's Eliza Brooke joins Cheddar to explain why Americans are so fixated on The White House fashion choices. She explains why the fixation touches on issues of class and wealth disparity. The senior reporter revisits some of the most buzz-worthy White House fashion moments of the year. From President Trump's taped-on necktie to Melania Trump's stilettos, there was no shortage of sartorial political headlines. Brooke reveals why the president's style is a flashpoint for both his critics and biggest supporters. A Wall Street Journal report found that Ivanka Trump has worn her own brand in 68% of her official appearances this year. Brooke considers whether the First Daughter is acting as a walking billboard for her personal fashion line. We also look back at the fashionable moments from other White House figures like Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway.
