Gorgeous Coats At Biden’s Inauguration (59th Presidential Inauguration)
The Presidential inauguration ceremony in the USA holds a cultural and historical significance for decades. From their speeches to their fashion to their body language, everything gets noticed inside America and the world.
Giving subtle hints through fashion has always been a hobby of politicians and celebrities. Whether it’s the Queen of England or Madam Vice President Kamala Harris, their wardrobes speak stories.
Talking about fashion, many important personalities wore symbolic coats at the inauguration ceremony held in January. The celebrities at the ceremony made sure to wear something light, chic, and vibrant.
The best features were the gorgeous coats at the Biden inauguration. Here are the details:
Kamala Harris
On top of our list is the iron lady herself. The newly elected VP Harris has always been known for her casual outfits from emerging designers. This time her dress and especially her coat bore huge symbolic representation.
Harris wore a bright purple coat, specifically tailored by Black American designers named Christopher John Rogers and Sergio Hudson.
The purple coat could be meant as a union for the Red (Republicans) and Blue (Democrats). This monochrome purple coat also celebrates feminism movements and pays tribute to the first Black presidential candidate Shirley Chisholm who often wore purple at her campaign.
Lady Gaga

Lady Gaga was seen as very active, vouching for Biden-Harris since their campaigns. As a staunch supporter of BLM and LGBTQ, she voiced actively for decades and found quite a success when the Americans voted for Biden.
Gaga, who was invited to perform the ‘Star-Spangled Banner’ at the ceremony, left no stone unturned to look flawless and unique as always. The multi Grammy-winner wore a custom Schiaparelli couture designed Navy Cashmere jacket that fitted her body well. Complementing it was a red silk faille skirt and a braid that reminds you of Daenerys Targaryen.
The best highlight of Gaga’s dress was the ‘Dove Brooch’ on her blue coat. Her dress was pretty theatrical and gave the message of peace, unity, and patriotism.
Michelle Obama
The former first lady Michelle has always been a style icon. She’s particularly famous for introducing new trends, and she’s done the same this time again by flaunting those hair curls while attending the ceremony.
Talking about the coat, Michelle also chose to wear a monochrome attire like Ms. Harris and Ms. Jill Biden. Her Burgundy coat seemed absolutely glam as it was ensembled with a similar colored turtleneck and a shawl collar. The palazzo pants were looking perfect and completed her glamorous look.
The coat and dress were designed by Sergio Hudson, who has created special outfits for celebs like Rihanna and Beyonce in the past.
Jennifer Lopez
J-Lo is also one of those many stars that actively supported Biden-Harris throughout their struggles. Now it was time for the President and VP to honor the support, and that is why they invited the singer to perform at the inauguration ceremony.
Lopez sang “This Land is Your Land” and “Let’s Get Loud” and awed the audience with her epic performance. What also amazed the people was her white outfit that shone like a bright star amidst the day.
J-Lo looked stunning in her all-white Chanel long duster tweed coat with a pair of sequin wide-leg pants and a silk blouse –again white. Those Chanel accessories and Jimmy Choo platform shoes were something not to be missed too.
White has lately become the color of the Women’s suffrage movement. It also implies the distaste for Donald Trump and his presidency.
Jill Biden
The new FLOTUS, Dr. Jill Biden, has set new examples for her successors already when she became the 1st First Lady ever to hold a running job. Surprisingly, Mrs. Biden’s dress also complemented the monochrome theme that Ms. Harris and Mrs. Obama wore.
Dr. Biden was seen wearing a customized Aquamarine coat with a teal blue wool scalloped dress underneath it. The coat was speaking volumes in terms of luxury, primarily due to those velvet shawl collars and cuffs.
Alexandra O’Neill designed this stunning coat for his brand Markarian and is yet to showcase it for his upcoming Fall 21 collection. The Democrat Blue color honored his Husband and the President’s motto. It also encourages stability, trustworthiness, and faith.
Katy Perry
The biggest surprise of the Biden-Harris inauguration was the closing performance by Katy Perry, who stole the night with her remarkable performance at the Lincoln Memorial.
The American singer performed her all-famous ‘Fireworks,’ which stole the hearts of Americans. Her dazzling white outfit made it to the headlines and OMG!
Talking about the coat, Ms. Perry was carrying a White cape-like coat that draped long. The dress was designed by Thom Browne, who wanted to add some American significance to that white dress.
To do that, the designer featured blue and red diamante details to the dress and coat, paying homage to America. Both the performers Jennifer Lopez and Katy Perry, rocked the white color.
Hillary Clinton
The former First Lady and the Secretary of State, Ms. Clinton, also chose to stay within the color hues of her successor Ms. Obama and VP Harris. Keeping the monochrome theme intact, Ms. Clinton became the second person to wear purple at the Biden-Harris inauguration.
She was seen wearing a plum-colored overcoat, and underneath it was a vivid royal purple pantsuit and a matching scarf.
Hillary kept it classy and chose to wear America’s most famous designer Ralph Lauren for the big day.
Amanda Gorman
Last but not least, one couldn’t help but overlook how beautifully Ms. Gorman recited her poem “The Hill We Climb.” This Youth Poet Laureate was a true reflection of grace, hopefulness, and equality.
Amanda chose to wear day colors, and her bright yellow-sunshine coat was one of the best highlights of the day. Prada designed this coat and the red headband that she wore along with it.
The yellow color, along with her Opera Winfrey gifted-earrings, held a historical and symbolic significance.
Bottom Line
The inauguration coats at the Biden-Harris inauguration were much more than a mere piece of clothes. They represented everything that the new government believes in. For more fashion updates, follow livingflawless.com.
