While the world is fixated on President Trump and his family, Hillary Clinton arrived at the Capitol wearing a white you guessed it pantsuit.

Similar to the ivory Ralph Lauren pantsuit Clinton wore to the Democratic National Convention and to the third presidential debate, Fridays Ralph Lauren suit with cashmere cream coat is a fitting choice for the candidate whose platform has elevated womens rights (and whose supporters are #StillWithHer).

White has been the color (rather, the lack thereof) of choice for women standing up for their rights throughout the 2016 presidential campaign, a nod to the suffragist movement in which women fought for the right to vote. Wearing white, as Yahoo Style has noted before, was an act of defiance during suffragist protests,most likely to claim a color so closely associated with purity, weddings, and youthfulness.

Twitter users immediately reacted to Clintons outfit, praising her for her hat-trick ensemble.

While Clintons campaign for the White House is over, thefight she helped lead forwomens rights clearly is not. On Election Day, voters wore white to the polls, and they very well may wear it again to march across the world. The absence of color is bold, indeed.
