Barron Trump, the 19-year-old son of former President Donald Trump, showcased a dramatically different look this week as he was seen leaving the New York University (NYU) campus. The young student, currently studying finance at the NYU Stern School of Business, opted for a casual, relaxed outfit, including a white Ralph Lauren polo shirt, beige chinos, and a brown leather belt. He completed his ensemble with a black backpack, marking a departure from his usual businessman attire, typically consisting of sharp suits and longline wool coats.
Barron’s tousled, uncombed hair was also a noticeable change from his usual slicked-back style, which has been a signature look for the young Trump over the years. Despite his public appearances, Barron has remained largely out of the spotlight, preferring to focus on his studies and personal life.
Accompanied by Secret Service security, Barron’s new college look comes after a year of increased visibility, especially during the 2024 election period, when he appeared with his father at public events and campaign outings. In an interview with Laura Ingraham, Donald Trump revealed that Barron has “an unbelievable aptitude in technology,” impressing him with his skills, such as bypassing laptop restrictions within minutes.
Melania Trump, in her 2024 memoir, praised Barron for his intelligence, charm, and resilience. She highlighted how he maintained strong values and character despite the whirlwind changes brought by his father’s presidency. According to Melania’s photographer, Regine Mahaux, the bond between mother and son is incredibly special, with Barron showing his pride and joy in his accomplishments, supported by his mother’s calming influence.
