One of the things I didn’t even think to look forward to: covering First Lady fashion without worrying about the fascism and racism of the First Family. Over the years, I did talk, here and there, about what Melania Trump wore. But I hated it! It will be so nice to cover Dr. Jill Biden’s fashion. I always thought she dressed like a teacher, and that’s true, but she also genuinely has style.
Case in point: for the Bidens’ arrival in Washington yesterday afternoon, and their public event in the evening, Dr. Jill chose a spectacular ensemble. She wore this stunning Jonathan Cohen coat in a vibrant purple, with a velvet belt-tie. Cohen is an American designer, based in New York, and this is from his yet-to-be-shown Fall 2021 collection. Meaning, Dr. Jill’s stylist thought to ask some small, independent American designers if she could buy/borrow some pieces for this week. The mask is from Cohen too, and her clutch is by Tyler Ellis. Jimmy Choo pumps!
By all accounts, Dr. Jill will try to go back to teaching at a local community college, but I just think in-person school is having a rough time at the moment. Maybe she’ll go back to teaching in the fall semester. Which leaves Dr. Jill time to fix some stuff as First Lady. There are already big appeals being made to Dr. Jill – people are desperate for her to fix Jacqueline Kennedy’s Rose Garden. Melania Trump ripped out the Kennedy Rose Garden and replaced it with a dull, colorless, cemetery-looking muted garden. We were calling it Melania’s White Power garden.

I’m also including photos from the Bidens and the Harris-Emhoffs’ memorial to the 400,000 souls who have passed away from the coronavirus. (We covered that story separately.)
