Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton wear purple at inauguration as Laura Bush dons blue

Michelle Obama cut a stylish figure in a head-to-toe plum suit by Sergio Hudson as she joined former First Ladies Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush at Joe Biden‘s inauguration on Wednesday. 

The 57-year-old, who was joined by her husband, former President Barack Obama, wore a floor-length coat over a form-fitting turtleneck and wide-leg pants — all in the same deep shade.

Mrs. Obama topped off the look with a large gold belt that pulled her look together. Her dark hair was wore down in loose curls, and she had on a black face mask that matched her heels and leather gloves.

Purple appeared to be the color of the day as Mrs. Clinton, 73, donned a bright purple suit and matching scarf. To keep warm, the former secretary of state also wore a dark wool coat over her suit. 

Like Mrs. Obama, she had on black mask that matched her gloves and shoes.  

While they opted for pants, Mrs. Bush, 74, wore a powder blue coat with a dark lapel over a slate-gray dress and sheer tights. She accessorized the look with a long pearl necklace, a light gray mask, and flats. 

The top button of her coat was buttoned, and she carried a small gray leather handbag that perfectly matched her dress.

Vice President Kamala Harris, 56, and First Lady Jill Biden, 69, seemed to set the tone with their respective outfits.
