Why Americans Are So Obsessed With the Trump Administration's Fashion
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.

We also look back at the fashionable moments from other White House figures like Sean Spicer and Kellyanne Conway.
