Jackie Kennedy In This Black And Yellow Chez Ninon
On September 19, 1961, Jackie Kennedy came out in a stunning ensemble for the second time. Jackie wore a black silk velvet and Chinese yellow silk satin evening dress by Chez Ninon to the White House state banquet honouring Peruvian President Manuel Prado. She accessorized with elbow-high gloves and a gorgeous accent bow on the skirt. The “Jacqueline Kennedy: The White House Years” exhibition at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art is now featuring this particular Jackie O look, which was on display as recently as 2001.

Lady Bird Johnson In Red With Multiple Pearl Accessories
Before Lyndon B. Johnson was elected president, Lady Bird Johnson was well-known for dressing in what he referred to as “muley” colors, which included browns and greys. Once she was elected, the former First Lady shifted her color palette to include more brilliant hues such as yellows, greens, and the occasional orange, instead of the traditional pastels. She chose a wine red evening gown with a small accent bow in the centre for this occasion, finding a happy medium between the two. Even while it isn’t as visually arresting as some of her other gowns, this one is exquisite in a completely new way, especially when combined with her multicoloured pearl necklace and think gold bracelet accessories.
