‘The Handmaid’s Tale’ fans compared Donald Trump’s daughter to Serena Joy. Before heading to the U.S. Capitol building this morning (January 20), Donald’s 43-year-old daughter arrived outside St. John’s Church with her children — Arabella, 13, Joseph, 10, and Theodore, eight — donning an emerald green, cinched pantsuit with a long-sleeved, asymmetrical hemmed coat wrapped and belted around her.

She paired the monochrome ensemble with a matching ascot cap fastened on the side of her head and a black Lady Dior bag. The dignified outfit struck a chord with viewers online, prompting many to compare the look to The Handmaid’s Tale character, Serena Joy, played by Yvonne Strahovski.
On Instagram, the popular fashion account @dietprada, which has more than 3.4 million followers, shared a carousel of images of Ivanka next to characters from the show. One image showed Strahovski’s character in a long matching green cape and leather gloves just like Ivanka’s swearing-in ceremony get-up.
Amused fans flocked to the comments section, arguing Ivanka intentionally mimicked the villainous character. “She literally watched this show and thought, ‘I don’t see why everyone hates serena joy she’s just a good christian woman,’” one person wrote below the photos, while another said: “It’s 100 percent intentional.”.
