It makes her face stand out.

I reminds me of the old Mission Impossible TV show. I never notice it until I read an article in TV guide about it. In the beginning of each show there was always a scene where they had a meeting to discuss the plans for their mission. In that scene everything in the room including the actors clothing was always black, white, or a shade of gray. It made the faces stand out because that was the only thing in color. It was the cinematographer's idea.

I don't think so. Why does it matter? This plays right into the male dominated republicans' bullshit that women are shallow and catty.

I vote "no", I don't really care what she's wearing.

It was difficult to see precisely but the suit looked to be made from an exquisite shantung in a truly beautiful, sophisticated color.

I loved all the people wearing blue and yellow in solidarity with Ukraine and definitely noted the cynicism of so many Republicans deliberately wearing red in some kind of distorted act of defiance.

But, from a pure design and quality perspective, Kamala was the most elegant and well-dressed person in the room. Jill Biden and Maxine Waters looked really lovely, too! Mitch McTurtle suit was as grim and dour as his miserable personality, but the little boy with Type 1 diabetes was as spiffy as can be and Joe was impeccable as always.
