What She Wore: Karen Stark for Harvey Berin

What It Meant: Like Lady Bird, Nixon chose to wear yellow to her husband’s Inauguration. “I think yellow is a good choice of color for a First Lady to wear to the Inauguration,” Dincuff said. “It’s cheerful, it’s sunny. It’s neutral when you’re talking about political party colors. Yellow is more of a uniting color.”
