Inventing Ivana.

Ivana restored the couple's new home, Marjorie Merriweather Post's gargantuan 118-room Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, as well as Trump Princess, the 282-foot yacht Trump purchased from the Sultan of Brunei for $30 million in 1987. Ivana not only loved Trump, she was tethered to Trump, so tightly that he would tell Oprah Winfrey in a joint interview, "We get along very well…because ultimately Ivana does exactly as I tell her to do." Ivana did the cover of Vogue!" Trailed by paparazzi and Trump's "killer lawyers" in the midst of her bloody divorce, she rushes breathlessly into the studio of the photographer Patrick Demarchelier, who is waiting alongside famed hairstylist Maury Hopson, makeup artist Vincent Longo, and creative director André Leon Talley - all gathered to style and shoot Ivana for the May 1990 cover of Vogue.
