The undisputed star of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris‘ inauguration celebration was indie designer Ella Emhoff, second gentleman Doug Emhoff‘s daughter. The 21-year-old turned heads when she sported a chic bedazzled Miu Miu coat and a long burgundy prairie dress by Batsheva while celebrating Biden and her stepmother at the Capitol building on January 20.

It’s no surprise that the second daughter took hold of the spotlight during the ceremony. In fact, Ella is an accomplished fashion designer herself. Naturally, she had an idea in mind for her ensemble in the weeks leading up to the event.

“My mood board was very ‘little girl,’ in a sense, a lot of scalloped collars and big silhouette shoulders and small buttons,” she told Vogue after the inauguration. “I was going for something girlier, to embrace my feminine side — especially after that suit that I felt so great in — because, like, how many times do you prepare yourself to attend an inauguration? This momentous of an event deserves a momentous outfit.”

Here’s everything we know about the new It girl of politics.
