First ladies typically donate their inaugural ball gowns to the Smithsonian Institution for its collection. Jill Biden is giving up two clothing ensembles, and neither one includes a gown.
The first lady said Wednesday that having the masks on exhibit will “represent the enormity of what we all faced at the time. A pandemic that has changed our world forever,”
“Since Helen Taft in 1912, every first lady who has been approached and has an inaugural gown has donated it,” said Lisa Kathleen Graddy, a curator of American political history at the museum. “We are very lucky that we have the space in this particular case to be able to display both of them,” Graddy said.First ladies typically donate the inaugural gown, but Joe Biden’s inaugural festivities were altered by the pandemic. People were not allowed to gather on the National Mall to watch him take the oath of office. A traditional lunch inside the Capitol afterward was scrapped, and the customary parade down Pennsylvania Avenue was replaced by a virtual one.
