The inauguration and pre-inauguration events surrounding Donald Trump were nothing short of glamorous, with a star-studded guest list. Among the many notable attendees was Priscilla Chan, wife of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, who turned heads with her elegant and minimalistic style. For the special occasion, Priscilla chose a timeless black gown that accentuated her natural grace, making her a standout at the event.
Mark Zuckerberg shared a picture of the couple on Instagram the day before, captioning it with, “Optimistic and celebrating 🇺🇸.” The pair certainly embodied couple style goals, as they both donned black for the evening. Mark’s ensemble featured a classic black suit, paired with a black shirt, bow tie, and formal trousers, while Priscilla opted for a sleeveless black gown with delicate flowy details, exuding understated sophistication.
What truly caught everyone’s eye, however, was Priscilla’s choice of accessory. She wore a stunning gemstone-studded necklace that added the perfect touch of glamour to her ensemble. This necklace had previously made a memorable appearance when Priyanka Chopra wore it to Isha Ambani’s Roman-themed Holi dinner party months earlier.
At that event, Priyanka Chopra stole the spotlight in a redesigned blush pink saree paired with a sculpted off-shoulder blouse, featuring a daring thigh-high slit and dramatic floor-sweeping details. She accessorized her look with the same multicolored gemstone necklace, complemented by minimal diamond studs and a ruby-studded ring. The ensemble was nothing short of show-stopping.
Months later, when Priscilla Chan wore the same necklace to Trump’s inauguration, it quickly captured the attention of netizens who recognized the piece. The simplicity and elegance of Priscilla’s look were further enhanced by her minimal makeup — black eyeliner, defined brows, soft pink blush, and a subtle pink lipstick. Her hair was styled in straight locks with a middle part, completing the chic, polished look.
It’s fascinating how fashion connects through high-profile events, with iconic pieces making appearances in different settings and on various stars, all while elevating the style quotient of the moment.
