Usha Vance Shares Receipt of $8 Dress After NYT Report on Maga Pregnancies

Usha Vance said her coral maternity dress was a discounted Old Navy purchase after The New York Times linked her pregnancy style to MAGA symbolism.

  • On Wednesday, Second Lady Usha Vance posted an image of her receipt for an $8.75 coral maternity dress from Old Navy on X, responding to a New York Times article about pregnancy aesthetics among high-profile women in President Donald Trump's Maga movement.
  • Chief Fashion Critic Vanessa Friedman wrote in The Times that the simultaneous pregnancies of high-profile women close to President Trump, including Vance, offer an idealized image of womanhood aligning with the pronatalist movement's vision for society.

  • The coral dress, originally priced at $50 but reduced to $7.47, is now sold out in all sizes, while social media commenters praised the Second Lady with one writing, "Beautiful and frugal and relatable!"
  • Friedman noted that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and Katie Miller, wife of Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, were also pregnant this year, reflecting the administration's pronatalist emphasis on motherhood.
