An eBay seller claimed that she purchased Melania Trump’s Dior dress from her for $70,000 in 2010 and made minor changes to use it as her wedding gown.
How much would the 20-year-old wedding dress of the US' current First Lady sell for? According to an eBay seller, the price starts at $45,000 and could go up to any amount. The seller, Svjabc1, listed a dress on the platform, claiming it belonged to Melania Trump. She alleged that she wore the same dress at her own wedding in 2010 after purchasing the gown for $70,000. However, a source told WWD that it could not be Trump’s dress, and the original John Galliano-designed Dior haute couture gown is kept in Mar-a-Lago.

“Because Melania Trump was a size 0-2, I had to have this dress made a little bigger, as I was a size 4-6,” the seller claimed, adding that she purchased it in 2010. She then listed the changes she claims she made to the dress.

“I added a new layer of satin to the bottom of the dress and a few more embroidery pieces on the top, plus there was a new layer of fabric that was added to the back of the dress and straps as my chest is much bigger than Melania,” the seller wrote.
The seller also shared pictures of Melania Trump in the gown and a few of a dress, which she claims is the same. However, the listing does not include a certificate of authentication. As of now, 143 people have been ‘watching’ the listing.
