Her dresses were fabulous - especially a lovely transparent Elie Saab - but what captured everyone's attention was her shoes, a pair of caramel colored Louboutins, with the famous red soles.

Melania has made a habit of honoring the country she is visiting by wearing clothes created by local designers, and this time she chose a navy dress designed by Belgian designer Raf Simons, which she wore with a pair of white Louboutin pumps.

The lovely, lacy Elie Saab dress was worn for a dinner that was part of the NATO summit, at which she literally outshone every other woman present.

Melania, 48, smiled enthusiastically as she greeted Brigitte Macron,65, the wife of Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, whom she had met on previous tours and summits.

The President of the United States also warmly greeted Brigitte right before they posed alongside the other heads of state and their wives at the Parc du Cinquantenaire.

On Wednesday, Melania joined Brigitte and the other presidential spouses at the Queen Elizabeth Music Chapel. For the visit, Melania wore another pair of Louboutins.

The First Lady has shared that Manolo Blahnik is her favorite shoe designer, but during this trip, she wore only Louboutins. The First Lady has worn Blahnik's creations on several occasions in the past, not always successfully.

In 2017, for example, Melania wore a pair of Blahnik's heels to Hurricane Harvey's flood zone and was criticised for inappropriately wearing expensive designer heels to a disaster area.
