Lauren Sánchez Bezos, a former journalist, drew attention when she attended a White House state dinner. The event was held in honor of Chinese President Xi Jinping. Sánchez Bezos, 56, appeared with Jeff Bezos, Amazon’s founder, wearing a black off-the-shoulder dress. The dress featured a plunging neckline and a close fit.
She accessorized her attire with diamond drop earrings and a large statement diamond necklace. Online, several users criticized her outfit choice, expressing that it was too revealing for a state dinner. Some questioned the couple’s presence at the event. Comments ranged from suggesting her clothing lacked class to questioning the appropriateness of her attire given her age.
“Money does not buy one class. She dresses terribly. So inappropriate,” remarked one user.
Another questioned, “Why are they invited to an event and eating on the taxpayer dime?” Others defended her choice, stating that her clothing is her personal decision.
Some users backed Sánchez Bezos, expressing support for her freedom to dress as she pleases. “Who else doesn’t care and thinks she should wear whatever she wants?” one user commented.
This isn’t the first instance when her clothing choices have sparked controversy. A notable prior event was President Trump’s 2025 inauguration. She wore a white Alexander McQueen pantsuit with a satin-trimmed blazer featuring a low-cut V-neck. Some of the public felt her exposed lace bustier was inappropriate.
“Good grief, Lauren Sánchez. Put them away for one day,” a user commented then.
