Laura Bush
Laura donned a red-crystal embellished gown made by a Texas designer for her first inauguration, similar to Hillary’s predecessor. She also wore pearls to honor her mother-in-law, former First Lady Barbara Bush. After Bush was re-elected for a second term, the country was in a very different post-September 11th phase. Laura followed Hillary’s lead and donned Oscar De La Renta. She looked stunning in an embroidered icy blue and silver tulle gown studded with Austrian crystals. Clearly, fashion knows no political boundaries.

Laura Chose Simple
Less is more. This was Laura Bush’s attitude toward her clothing. Sure, she could have been the belle of the ball every time she walked into a room, but she didn’t. After saying that Melania Trump got it right at the inauguration, Dallas fashion designer commented about Bush. “What I loved about Mrs. Bush was that she was always extremely conscious of not wanting her clothing to shout loudly,” Faircloth remarked. “She had a lot of things she thought were more important.”
