The 43-year-old former presidential adviser sparked conversation after uploading a carousel of sun-drenched photos in celebration of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s lavish wedding weekend.
Ivanka Trump took to Instagram to share her Venetian getaway, posting a series of glamorous snapshots on June 26, 2025, that quickly drew a flood of fan commentary. Captured in what appeared to be a luxury suite, Ivanka wore a sleeveless pink-and-white tweed mini dress adorned with three-dimensional floral appliqués. She styled her hair in soft waves and kept her accessories minimal, ensuring the detailed dress took center stage.
One particular photo showed her gazing out over the rooftops of Venice from her suite — a quiet moment that contrasted with the online frenzy that followed.
Later in the carousel, her husband Jared Kushner made an appearance. The couple posed on a sunlit balcony, their smiles as polished as the marble tiles beneath them.
But not all feedback was adoring. While many admired the dress, others weren’t sold. One user thought the outfit was too short, while another likened the dress to a frosted wedding cake. A more conflicted viewer admitted they were “on the fence” — acknowledging the resemblance to dessert, but still calling Ivanka beautiful: “You could wear a tarp and still look beautiful.”
Whether praised or critiqued, one consensus rang clear — the outfit turned heads.
Meanwhile, across Venice, the bride-to-be was also making waves.
On the evening before her wedding, Lauren Sánchez stepped out of the Aman Hotel in a dramatic, off-the-shoulder gown. With embroidered floral details and a corset-style waist cinched at the back, her look set social media ablaze.
Sánchez wore her hair in a high, flowing ponytail, and let her sizable engagement ring shine. She and Bezos were photographed holding hands as they departed the hotel for a pre-wedding dinner, flanked by guests and tight security.
But the public response was just as intense as Ivanka’s — if not more polarized.
Aside from the gown, many fixated on her ring — a massive gem that sparked divided opinions. Some called it gaudy, others fake-looking, and a few wondered whether it was wearable at all.
Still, not all reactions were harsh. One commenter took a softer tone, noting how happy the couple appeared together: “They genuinely look in love.”
Despite the glamorous backdrops and couture looks, the internet once again found itself critiquing, comparing, and debating everything from hem lengths to high-end jewelry — proving that in the age of social media, not even a billionaire’s wedding is off-limits to public opinion.
