- President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were sworn into office on Wednesday.
- Their families attended the celebration in stunning outfits.
- Biden and Harris' family members wore monochromatic ensembles, beautiful coats, and sneakers.
Vice President Kamala Harris' all-purple look was packed with symbolism.
On Wednesday, Kamala Harris was sworn in as Vice President, making history as the first Black, South Asian, and female person to hold the role.
Harris stunned in a purple dress and coat, which she paired with a black mask and shoes.
Her look was created by two Black designers: Christopher John Rogers and Sergio Hudson.
In addition, purple was one of Harris' campaign colors as a nod to Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman elected to Congress, so it's likely her Inauguration ensemble was designed to honor Chisholm as well.
Doug Emhoff and Harris both wore American designers on the day, as the second gentleman was dressed in a suit by Ralph Lauren.
Like the Vice President, first lady Jill Biden wore a monochromatic outfit.
Jill wore a matching Markarian dress and coat to accompany her husband, President Joe Biden, to his inauguration. Markarian is a New York-based luxury fashion brand.
The ocean-blue, tweed look was custom-designed for Jill, with a velvet collar and cuffs on the sleeves, according to a press release from Markarian. The same press release notes that the color was intended to "signify trust, confidence, and stability."
Swarovski crystals and pearls adorn the garments as well.
The first lady's gloves, shoes, and mask were the same shade of blue as her dress and coat.
Ella Emhoff wore a patterned Miu Miu jacket.
Doug Emhoff's children, Ella and Cole, attended their "momala's" swearing-in ceremony.
Ella stood out in a sea of monochrome looks during the ceremony, sporting a plaid Miu Miu jacket, according to The New Yorker's Rachel Syme.
Embellishments on the shoulders, a large button, and a white collar give the coat a sophisticated edge.
Ella paired the coat with black boots, black gloves, and a black mask.
The vice president's niece, Meena Harris, embraced a green outfit, which she paired with sparkly shoes.
Meena mixed shades of green on Inauguration Day, sporting an emerald Ulla Johnson dress with layers of fringe, and a Coach coat made of lamb shearling.
Her mask was covered in stars and embossed with "We the people."
The author and activist added sparkly Paris Texas boots to the look.
Ella and Meena's outfits dresses also complemented each other.
Under her coat, Ella wore a burgundy dress by Batsheva — a Jewish designer — with a ruffled trim and ruffled sleeves that had a similar look to Meena's outfit.
Ashley Biden rocked a navy ensemble.
The president's youngest daughter looked classic and elegant in Gabriela Hearst's Cantwell coat at the inauguration.
The riding coat silhouette brought some fun to the day. She paired the jacket with a navy mask and gloves.
Biden's granddaughters also wore monochromatic outfits.
All four of Biden's granddaughters sported monochromatic outfits, though each of them selected a different color to wear for the day.
Naomi Biden, one of Hunter Biden's daughters, wore a white coat, mask, and gloves to her grandfather's inauguration.
Her sister Finnegan opted for a neutral-toned Brandon Maxwell coat and matching A-line jacket.
Natalie Biden chose an all-pink ensemble.
Natalie, the late Beau Biden's daughter, followed her cousins' lead by wearing one color as well.
She wore Lafayette 148 New York's Dawson coat with a matching mask and gloves.
Maisy Biden brought some fun to her navy look with Air Jordan sneakers.
Maisy, who is Hunter Biden's daughter, went for a dark-blue, monochromatic look.
But she brought some fun to the outfit with Air Jordan 1 Mid "Sisterhood" sneakers, which have yet to be released to the general public.
Kamala Harris' grandnieces wore Plum NYC coats.
Meena Harris' husband, Nikolas Ajagu, also wore sneakers on Inauguration Day.
Ajagu, Harris' nephew-in-law, joined his wife and his daughters at the inauguration, wearing a pair of statement sneakers.
The shoes weren't ordinary sneakers, though; Ajagu sported Dior Air Jordan sneakers to the event that cost $2,000.
The shoes were from Dior's fall 2020 Runway collection.
