2014 photo of Trump and indicted Lev Parnas taken in Doral at Ivanka fashion show.

Remember how Trump was saying he didn't even know the big campaign donor? He hasn't known him since at least 2014.

(CNN)A March 2014 photograph showing Donald Trump with a recently indicted associate of Rudy Giuliani appears to have been taken at a fashion show hosted by Ivanka Trump at the Trump National Doral in Florida, a CNN KFile review reveals.

CNN's KFile identified that the photo with Trump and Lev Parnas was apparently taken at a fashion show at the Cadillac Championship, an annual professional golf tournament. The fashion show was for the luxury fashion brand Carolina Herrera on March 7 and was also attended by Trump's sons Eric and Donald Jr. and Ivanka's husband Jared Kushner, who is now a senior White House adviser along with his wife. Donald Trump spoke at the event, according to photos and a video posted on YouTube.

Parnas, along with his associate Igor Fruman, were arrested last week trying to leave the country and indicted on criminal charges for allegedly funneling foreign money into US elections. The two men are associates of Giuliani, an attorney for the President, and are connected to efforts to dig up dirt in Ukraine on Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.

The photo of Parnas and Trump was first reported by Politico on Saturday, but the outlet did not report on the circumstances surrounding it. An additional photo of the crowd from the event, found by CNN's KFile, shows Parnas mingling in the crowd. CNN's KFile identified the event by matching pictures posted online by various photographers and attendees with the date of the event.
