From huge jackets to red ties: How Trump's style has changed

It is interesting that back in the mid-1970s, when Donald Trump was in his mid-30s and engaged in real estate, his style was almost identical to today's.

Although there was no self-tanning back then, and his hair was a natural blond color, the key elements of his business image were already evident: accentuated shoulders in suits, a wide tie, and a signature hairstyle.

In 1977, Trump married Ivana Zelnichkova, who was a model, designer, and had undoubted taste. Perhaps it was she who inspired him to improve his style: during the 1980s, their joint public appearances looked quite stylish and balanced.

Donald occasionally changed his classic ties to bow ties and wore tuxedos on special occasions, but his characteristic hairstyle remained unchanged.

The famous red tie appeared during the same period.

In the noughties, when the economy was going through another crisis, Trump's style acquired characteristic features that would not change over the next twenty years.

He begins to dye his hair, which journalists repeatedly compare to various unusual shades, adds a bronze color to his face (either through a solarium or self-tanner), wears elegant shirts with cufflinks, and fills his wardrobe with classic suits reminiscent of the style of the 80s.

Since then, the red tie has become almost an integral part of Trump's image, and only in rare cases can other variants be seen.

By the way, as a Republican, Trump chooses the color red, which becomes part of his brand, correlating it with the symbols of his party. Thanks to this, his famous Make America Great Again (MAGA) hats have become easily recognizable.

When it comes to the politician's hairstyle, discussions about it in the media and social media often outpace even discussions of his scandalous tweets. Trump diligently styles his long hair, but sometimes it is out of control, giving rise to various theories about a wig, transplant, or laser scalp treatment.

Although in 2024 he dyed his hair in more natural and less controversial shades and took care of his styling, it is likely that over the next four years, discussions of his hair and his too-long tie will be actively discussed in the public space.
