Vice President Harris chose a bespoke gown by Chloé for a White House state dinner for Kenya in May 2024.
The deep green design was created by the brand’s creative director, Chemena Kamali. More from this Washington Post piece by Rachel Tashjian.
A month later, she attended the White House state dinner for Kenya wearing a forest-green cape gown, secured with a gold rosette at the neck and matching gold bangles on her forearms, by the French brand Chloé. That brand just recently appointed a new designer, a French woman, Chemena Kamali, with terrific je ne sais quoi and even more terrific hair who has already set off a wave of excitement for her ultrafeminine, slightly bohemian designs.
In this photo, you see the Vice President and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton speaking with Rachel Ruto (back to camera), the wife of President William Samoei Ruto of Kenya. You also get just a glimpse of Dr. Jill Biden on the far left. The photo is from a reception before the Kenya State Dinner.
Here is a closer look at the neckline pin and two of the Vice President’s bracelets.
