What the incoming second lady wore

Usha Vance wore a gorgeous strapless velvet gown featuring asymmetric floral accents to the event. She kept her jewellery to a minimum, opting for simple and elegant stud earrings instead of a necklace. The future second lady completed her look with a bun that showcased her gown's sweetheart neckline.

Usha's glamorous black gown complemented her husband's black tux and bow tie. The two were pictured walking hand-in-hand at the dinner in Washington DC, which was held just two days before the 60th US presidential inauguration. The dinner was also graced by prominent international guests, including Mukesh Ambani, the chairman of Reliance Industries, and wife, Nita Ambani, who wore massive emerald jewels with her chic black saree.

More about Usha Vance

Her family moved abroad 50 years ago, and she is now set to become the first non-white second lady of the US. An accomplished lawyer and the child of Indian immigrants, Usha is known for her academic success.

Her family hails from Vadluru, a village in Andhra Pradesh.
