The D.C. mayor has urged Americans to stay home and watch the inauguration of the 46th President from home in light of the January 6 insurrection (oh, and the ongoing coronavirus pandemic), and they are (via NBC News). As the ceremony gets underway, Twitter’s trending topics include: “Mr. President” and #InaugurationDay, along with #NotMyPresident as the world watches the event from home and from work. And, along with the historic event and the palpable political tensions, there was still time for some more innocuous opinions floating around social media, like people commenting on the coat worn by Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter.
Ella Emhoff, daughter of Doug Emhoff and stepdaughter of Kamala Harris, caught the eye of inauguration-watchers with her choice of coat for the occasion, even if they didn’t recognize her. Her ensemble included a long, brown, embellished plaid coat with a white, embroidered collar which she accented with a black patent headband. The look did not go unnoticed by the internet; for instance, one user tweeted: “Who is she?! I’m a fan #InaugurationDay” with two photos of Emhoff in the background of the inauguration (via Twitter). Another user was quick to reply: “I’m p[retty] sure that’s Doug Emhoff’s daughter. (Kamala’s stepdaughter) they call her Momala.” Of course, more opinions were quick to rush in about the coat.
What Twitter has to say about Ella Emhoff's coat
For the most part, Twitter seems to be on board with the more individual fashion choice, with statements like, “Excited for Ella Emhoff to become a style icon over the next four years” getting over 1,000 likes in less than an hour (via Twitter). Another tweet showed Emhoff’s inauguration look next to another stunning coat ensemble with the comment: “Kamala Harris’ stepdaughter Ella Emhoff wearing Thom Browne & an embellished coat. Let me tell you, I am excited for the next 4 years!”
