Vice President Harris has worn this Akris Punto piece several times, including a March 2020 engagement at the historic Brown Chapel AME Church in Selma, Alabama. We recently saw her in the garment at an April 2021 event marking the administration of 200 million COVID-19 vaccines in the US.
The Zip Front Dress is made in a viscose/poly/elastane blend and is far more detailed than what you can see in the product photos.
The dress features a sheath silhouette with topstitched princess seams, waist darts, a front half-zip with a metal pull tab, an invisible back zipper, and cap sleeves. Below, a closer look at the details in product photos (left and center) and as worn by the Vice President (right).
One of the first times we saw Ms. Harris wearing the piece was at the July 2018 introduction of a bill to reunify immigrant families.
