A parade of purple at Biden inauguration
President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration is proving to be a parade of purple, as several high-profile figures are sporting various shades of the “bipartisan” color.
Former first lady Michelle Obama, 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris all appeared to be wearing purple garments.
The color, a mix of both red and blue, is traditionally recognized as a sign of bipartisanship.
Harris’s purple-hued outfit was reportedly crafted by a pair of emerging Black designers: Christopher John Rogers and Sergio Hudson.
