Trump ear bandages to MAGA dresses: Fashion at the RNC

From wearing ear bandages in solidarity with former President Trump in the wake of the failed attempt on his life to donning “Don’t Tread on Me” gowns, supporters of their party’s nominee are going all out at the Republican National Convention. 

Throughout the four-day national event, droves of the former president’s supporters have been seen flooding downtown Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum, where much of the convention is being held, draped in American flag-themed apparel with Trump 2024 posters in hand. 

But within that sea of red, white and blue, there is still a list of attendees that manage to stand out, including a man dressed in a suit cloaked in Trump’s border wall, and another sporting a blazer decorated with copies of the former president’s face.

Here’s a look at some of the most eye-catching outfits from this week’s convention, where Republicans are gearing up to nominate Trump as the party’s official 2024 presidential nominee.
