Mariah Carey’s Second Inauguration
Mamie donned yet another Nettie Rosenstein creation for President Dwight Eisenhower’s second inaugural ball in 1961. Her yellow ballgown featured a lovely off-the-shoulder neckline, and she looked stunning in it. Beads, lace, crystal drops, and topaz are used to embellish the taffeta dress. It’s no secret that Mamie was a sucker for jewellery. Mamie wore a portion of her dress that she had tailored for the last inauguration. On this occasion, she was carrying a Trifari purse that featured the letter “M” on one side and the year “1957” on the other. A lovely pearl neckline and a pair of long, white gloves finished off her appearance beautifully.

The Gown Cost $46,000 And Took 300 Hours To Make
Ronald Reagan was re-elected president of the United States in 1985 for a second term. Nancy once again enlisted the services of designer James Galanos for her second inaugural ball. Her glistening gown featured a bolero-style bodice and an art deco pattern. According to reports, Galanos spent 300 hours by manually putting all of the beads, which apparently cost a stunning $46,000. Nancy Reagan was well-known for her affinity for handcrafted garments, but she was also a fan of Haute fashion. Her second inauguration gown was a combination of the two. It was meticulously constructed from white chiffon and glass beads sourced from Austria and Czechoslovakia, among other places. For the rest of her life, designer Galanos continued to produce garments for her personal use.
