A controversy has erupted over the $60 dress worn by Jennifer Rauchet, the third wife of US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner.
The dress, priced at $US42 on fast-fashion site Shein, has sparked a heated debate over fashion choices and hypocrisy.
Some critics, including socialist socialite Ella Devi, have faced backlash for targeting Rauchet's affordable gown, while others have praised her for making a 'reasonably priced' choice.
Right-wing provocateur Laura Loomer weighed in, saying 'There was an attempted assassination and you are shaming women for their fashion choices.'
Devi has faced criticism for her own designer clothing choices, including Chanel bags and Burberry, on social media.
