ELLA EMHOFF EMERGES AS AN UNEXPECTED STYLE STAR OF THE PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION
Social media has spoken: Vice President Kamala Harris’s stepdaughter is a fashion icon.
There was much to celebrate on Wednesday during the Inauguration of President Joe Biden: bidding a not-so-fond farewell to the last guy; naming Kamala Harris our first female, first Black and first South Asian Vice President of the U.S.; a return of meaningful American fashion to the political stage. But for Fashion Twitter, there was another, somewhat unexpected moment of style triumph.
BEHOLD: LADY GAGA’S CUSTOM SCHIAPARELLI GOLDEN INAUGURATION DOVE
Gaga bless America.
Lady Gaga has literally never shown up not dressed for the occasion, and on Inauguration Day 2021 — we did it, Joe! — the performer did not disappoint (where vocals or fashion were concerned).
JENNIFER LOPEZ WEARS WHITE CHANEL SEQUINS TO PERFORM AT INAUGURATION
America the beautiful, indeed.
Wednesday’s Inauguration of 46th President Joe Biden turned out to be quite the fashion event, and Jennifer Lopez unsurprisingly rose to the occasion.
She followed up National Anthem singer Lady Gaga’s red Schiaparelli look with another hue from the American flag: white. Her silk ruffled high-neck blouse, sequined wide-leg pants, long tweed coat, earrings, bracelet and belt were all Chanel

The look included earrings gifted by none other than Oprah.
When Amanda Gorman was chosen to write and deliver an original poem, “The Hill We Climb” for the inauguration of President Joe Biden, the pressure was on. But at least when it came to getting dressed, she had it covered: Gorman reached for a head-to-toe outfit from Prada, a brand with whom she has worked in the past.
SEN. BERNIE SANDERS HAS A SUSTAINABLE FASHION MOMENT AT THE PRESIDENTIAL INAUGURATION
Mittens are a winter must-have, after all
There was a lot of fashion chatter surrounding the Presidential Inauguration in Washington, D.C. on Sunday, from the role emerging American talent played in it to the representation of Black designers to the surprise Miu Miu credit spotted on the steps of the U.S. Capitol. But it was arguably the Democratic Senator from Vermont, Bernard “Bernie” Sanders, who stood out from the socially-distant crowd with his sensible attire, which also made a sustainability statement.
ON THE EVE OF THE INAUGURATION, DR. JILL BIDEN AND VP-ELECT KAMALA HARRIS SEND A POWERFUL MESSAGE WITH THEIR FASHION
And what it might tell us about the next four years.
For the First Lady of the United States, fashion has historically proven to be a powerful means of communication — of values, of diplomacy, of how they really feel. And the public has long scrutinized the contents of their wardrobes. (There’s an entire collection in the Smithsonian dedicated primarily to their clothing.) On the eve of a historic inauguration, Dr. Jill Biden’s outfit was suggesting what she might want to achieve with her sartorial choices over the next four years.
