After sharing just one picture of Melania Trump donning an overcoat and a boujee hat, Kim Kardashian took a hit to the number of Instagram followers she has.

The 44-year-old reportedly lost 150,000 followers on the social media app after uploading the first lady's inauguration outfit onto her Instagram Story.

Melania's outfit has left the fashion world in awe, and clearly the SKIMS boss was a fan, with American designer Eric Javits having created the two-tiered navy hat.

He released a statement following his collaboration with Melania. It read: “My art background gave me an edge in bringing harmony and balance to the face by creating hat shapes that would flatter and enhance every kind of face.

"In this specific case that was not difficult to do, in that Mrs. Trump is blessed with great bone structure, beauty and a wonderful sense of style."

But while the Slovenian's get-up was easy on the eye, Kim posting Melania on her Instagram was seen as controversial to many - with people believing she was advocating for President Donald Trump's administration.

The move saw her lose 150,000 of her 358 million followers.

Fans on Twitter slammed her decision to post the picture.

"Please stop supporting Kim Kardashian bc she just confirmed that she voted for tr*mp by posting his wife," wrote one person.

A second posted: "So we all agree that Kim Kardashian is a Trump supporter right?"

While another commented: "Kim Kardashian, a very wealthy woman, supports tr*mp and his administration, omg no way what a shocker!!!!"

"The Kardashians are Trump supporters to no one's surprise. Besties with Musk and Bezos. Always selling their souls for a $ and a minute of relevance," a fourth typed.

"Kim Kardashian being a Trump supporter is one of the most on brand things ever," added another.

Whether you're a Trump fan or not, Melania slayed in her outfit, but on the same day she and her hubby had a bit of an awkward moment.

I'm talking about when Melania 'turned her face' from Trump as he failed to kiss her during his presidential inauguration.

Speaking inside the US Capitol building for his second inauguration today (January 20), Donald Trump revealed his plans for the future as the 47th president.

Before his grand speech, Trump was seen arriving with his wife and incoming first lady for a church service, the tradition which marks the start of the inauguration and the end of office for Joe Biden.

But before entering the chamber, Trump appeared to try and kiss Melania in what could've been a touching moment - but didn't quite manage it.

Although, all-in-all the pair were happy with the interaction!
