It’s Inauguration Day 2025, with Donald Trump set to be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States at the U.S. Capitol.

The swearing-in ceremony were moved inside to the Capitol rotunda after frigid temperatures preempted the planned outdoor events.

It’s also the second inauguration for Melania Trump, whose ensemble for 2025 is markedly different from what the first lady wore in 2017, though both are similar in that they’re shades of blue.
