The Valentino slingbacks showcased a sleek pointed toe, leather insoles and a buckle-fastening ankle strap for a snug and secure fit. The fashion house’s iconic VLogo atop the mid-heel pumps completed the look.
Biden has worn the style many times before, including at the International Medal of Arts honoree ceremony in September 2023.
During “CBS Mornings,” Gayle King asked Dr. Jill Biden, “How many times did you change your outfit today?” Biden responded, “I just chose a typical outfit,” which was consistent with her previous ensembles, including the Christian Dior pumps she wore for a welcome ceremony for Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in June 2023.
Biden gravitates towards shoes that offer both security and stability, as seen in her choice of Knee-High Suede Boots worn at the 2024 White House Easter Egg Roll.
