Ivanka Trump's Influence In Her Daughter's Style Is Crystal Clear

Is there anything more adorable than a daughter following in her mother's fashion footsteps? Arabella Kushner, Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner's eldest child, turns 14 in 2025, and is right around the age when many teenagers start carving out their own style. Coincidentally, it's also the age Ivanka landed her first modeling job with Tommy Hilfiger, courtesy of Donald Trump's connections. Arabella may not be headed down the modeling path (yet), but she's clearly taken a shine to fashion. She's already taking notes from her fashionista mom and is blending the Ivanka-aesthetic with a youthful twist of her own.

When Arabella was just a toddler, Ivanka told Romy and the Bunnies that her daughter's style instincts were already kicking in. "Arabella has already developed her own sense of style, and it's what I call 'all things pink and princess,'" the first daughter said. Perhaps, this should have been the first hint that she was taking after her mother. Some of Ivanka Trump's most expensive outfits have been flowy, princess-cut gowns with full skirts. And her aesthetic, in her own words, blends "classic with a modern twist."

Now that Arabella's growing up, she's kept her mother's elegance, as well as her love for full-length cuts, but switches it up with in-style, trendy pieces. A great example is the sleek black strapless dress with a chic neck scarf she wore in June, as shown on Instagram. Neck scarf dresses are having a spotlight moment right now, and Arabella wore hers like a seasoned fashion girlie.

Most daughters have at least one piece in their mother's wardrobe they secretly dream of borrowing, and Arabella Kushner is no exception. She's already been spotted in two of Ivanka Trump's outfits, both of which fit like they were made for her. We're chalking it up to the height in the Trump genes.

The first occasion was in January 2025, at the National Prayer Service. Arabella wore the Suzannah London plaid wool coat-dress, which was first seen on Ivanka in 2020. She gave it a youthful twist by layering it over a black turtleneck and wide-leg black pants, which wasn't only stylish but well thought-out. Everyone knows the wide-leg pant trend is perfect for looking stylish and keeping warm in winter.

A few months later, in June, she borrowed from her mom again, this time for grandpa Charles Kushner's ambassadorship celebration at the White House after being appointed by Donald Trump. She wore Ivanka's white Emilia Wickstead dress with black buttons, originally worn back in 2018 when Arabella was still a child. Seeing her in it now is definitely a full-circle fashion moment.

The clearest sign that Arabella Kushner and Ivanka Trump bond over fashion is how often they coordinate their outfits. They consistently twin in colors that flatter them both, despite their different hair tones. Clearly, these moments are intentional. A quick scroll through Ivanka's Instagram shows just how often they nail the matching game, even when Jared Kushner and their boys go for a more laid-back approach. During Tiffany Trump's wedding in 2022, Ivanka and Arabella matched in a gorgeous ethereal blue that was perfect for the occasion and shared the images on Instagram.

They matched again at Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's 2024 wedding in India, with stunning yellow traditional outfits. But perhaps the most personal and touching example happened the previous year during Arabella's Bat Mitzvah in 2023. The teenager wore a sparkly silver-and-gold dress that was unmistakably coordinated with Ivanka's mint-green and silver gown. A Bat Mitzvah celebrates the transition from girlhood to young womanhood, and the choice to coordinate with her mother on such a milestone day said more about their bond than words ever could.

The best part is that Arabella's fashion journey is just beginning. Style develops with age, and with her Trump-Kushner lineage, plus the resources, opportunities, and a fashion-savvy mom like Ivanka, Arabella has everything she needs to figure out how style should evolve through life changes. She's on a great path to shape an aesthetic that's uniquely her own and we're excited to see it.
