Ivanka Trump has posed in 'Rodeo Barbie Cosplay' days after her dramatic testimony

Former First Daughter Ivanka Trump shows a "hidden desire" with telling key head and leg gestures in new pics showing her relaxing at a festival with family, body language expert has revealed.

Just days ago, Ivanka testified in her father's civil fraud trial case in New York last week, being unhappily dragged back into the Donald Trump circus - while being keen to use her Instagram page to share updates on her life since leaving politics. The oldest daughter of the former President has now attended the Country Bay Music Festival in Miami, Florida, showing herself with her husband Jared Kushner and son Theodore, seven.

Expert Judi James says Ivanka reveals a "telling gesture" in the pictures, which show her in a two-piece denim outfit with crop top and cowboy hat, Western-style belt, country hat, sunglasses and cowboy boots. "Ivanka’s very telling gesture here is the head-tilt, which she seems to be performing every time the camera is on her," Judi told the Mirror.

This along with a bent knee shows a "desire to be liked," according to Judi. She added: "She’s also posing with one knee bent and the two gestures together signal a desire to be liked. A head tilt is a friendly and even loveable gesture... Anyone posing for a passport photo will know how cold an upright head can look in a photo and simply by tilting the head the impression is of someone wanting to connect and gain approval."

‌The cheapest tickets for the festival came in at a cool $975, with some that could be bought for $2,559. Her outfit was a change of pace from the reported $11,500 outfit at the fraud trial.

"The bent leg is a typical beauty queen device with the same aim in mind," Judi added. "When we want to look confident and assertive we stand with both legs straight and feet slightly splayed but a bent knee is a more passive-looking gesture."

Ivanka has courted a life away from the spotlight (ivankatrump/Instagram)

Ivanka has courted a life away from the spotlight since she left her father's administration in Washington DC. She has so far failed to endorse her dad in his presidential run.

‌Judi added: "This body language is completely congruent with the Rodeo Barbie cosplay here. This is a woman who spent years cultivating a high-status, business-like image when she appeared as her father’s political heir but it seems that after the court case she is keen to switch to reveal a less high status, less high-power side."

Ivanka has kept a low profile with an apparent desire to focus on her family life. "This is causing problems with Ivanka who has worked hard to stay under the radar for the last two-ish years, and is bracing herself for the press and paparazzi who will pounce on her at court," a source previously told PageSix, adding that Trump "sympathises" with his daughter's feelings "because of how it affects her life in Miami."

They said the 45th president is aware that "Ivanka wants zero attention" and he is upset she is being "thrust back into the spotlight." He reportedly feels his sons Eric and Donald Jr are more able to deal with the heat caused by the issues and fight back, despite Ivanka being the only adult child of Trump's who is a non-defendant in the case. He fears his eldest daughter is "more vulnerable" since stepping away from politics.

Despite reports of Trump's concern for his daughter, there remain questions about Ivanka's decision not to publicly support her father's 2024 presidential bid. She has been more outspoken than her siblings on key issues and has also said she does not believe the 2020 election was stolen despite Trump's repeated false claims.

At the end of October, before taking to the stands in her dad's trial, Ivanka had shared pictures of herself posing with her family in white and pink clothing, making an effort to look humble, innocent and family-focused.

Ivanka donned a pink spaghetti-strap mini dress with open bell sleeves held together with rhinestone bows in a look that complemented her decor. Ivanka's long dining room table was decorated with colourful flowers and pink napkins, having been set up in front of the pool for a night of al fresco dining.

Body language expert Judi said at the time: "In her very sweet-looking baby pink minidress she seems to distance herself from the designer corporate look she is known for. "Hugging her husband and her son her look was probably supposed to be playful and relaxed, but instead she looks slightly vulnerable, with her torso turned into and pressed against Jared as he holds her hand protectively and places his other arm around her waist."
