Simplicity and Splendor: The Inauguration Day Wardrobes of America's Presidents and First Ladies
$25
WB0224 – October 28 at 10am – 11:15am, Wednesday

From George Washington, who chose formal morning dress over a uniform, to Mary Lincoln, whose flamboyant ensemble angered her husband, to William Henry Harrison, who tragically refused outerwear during a cold rain, to Michele Obama, who dressed her kids in J Crew, inauguration wardrobes have been closely watched and analyzed. Why? Because what they wore speaks volumes about our Presidents and First Ladies, about the times in which they lived and the nation they represented. Instructor: Catherine Fitzpatrick
