US President Donald Trump’s granddaughter has unveiled a clothing brand bearing her name, with promotional photos taken at the White House featuring the teen in a US$130 sweatshirt.

Donald Trump Jnr’s daughter stood near her 79-year-old grandfather on Friday wearing one of her brand’s pullovers, as he answered reporters’ questions outside the White House.

“This is Kai, by the way,” he told the Washington press corps, introducing his 18-year-old granddaughter who had given a short speech at last year’s Republican National Convention.
