The presidential candidate has finessed her look — as seen on the digital cover of US Vogue.
Dress for the job you want, the adage goes, but does Kamala Harris dress like a president? In one sense, yes, because they’ve all favoured suits, and so does Harris. But also, no, because there isn’t a precedent for what a female president of the US wears.
And now Harris’s aesthetic has been captured for October’s digital cover of US Vogue. In the Annie Leibovitz portrait, she wears her own dark brown Gabriela Hearst suit with a plum-coloured silk blouse, her Tiffany pearl earrings and a flag pin. She’s dialled up the sophistication since wearing skinny black trousers and Converse for her first US Vogue cover in 2021, which was interpreted as too casual and familiar.
But the lavallière blouse, as it’s also known, has been interpreted as symbolic, too. Melania Trump chose a Barbie-pink Gucci version shortly after her husband’s boast that he could “grab by the pussy”, and it’s been questioned whether Harris is seeking to underline Trump’s lack of respect for women’s rights by wearing them.
