Melania as muse?
Cypress mom underwent multiple procedures to get the first lady look
After surviving a cancer diagnosis and a lengthy divorce battle, Claudia Sierra was ready for a makeover.
The Cypress mother of two boys found inspiration in an unlikely place: the White House.
“I want to feel like the first lady that I know I am inside,” Sierra said. “Melania (Trump) for me illustrates power and strength … I am looking forward to more closely resembling her and becoming a better version of me.”
She turned to wellknown plastic surgeon Dr. Franklin Rose, who performed a revision rhinoplasty, tummy tuck, liposuction, Brazilian buttock lift, eyelid lift, Botox, fillers and injectables.
“I have had many women visit my office wanting the Ivanka look,” Rose said. “So it’s not really surprising to see women now requesting to look more like Melania, who is simply gorgeous.”
Last week, Sierra debuted her transformation before friends, family and supporters at 51fifteen Cuisine & Cocktails inside Saks Fifth Avenue. Event planner Lily Paxson-Salinas and Rexberry Events decorated the space with patriotic red, white and blue tabletops, streamers and confetti.
Backstage, makeup artist and eyebrow expert Edward Sanchez helped Sierra nail Trump’s signature polished look.
The crowd cheered as Sierra finally made her big reveal. She emerged from behind a curtain in a sequined gold gown to Diana Ross’ “I’m Coming Out.”
On Oct. 5, Sierra shared her “mommy makeover” journey on “Inside Edition.”
