On Monday, JD Vance arrived in New Delhi for his first official visit as the U.S. Vice President, making a visit to the Akshardham Temple. He was accompanied by his wife, Usha Vance, and their three children: Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel. Usha dressed up for the occasion, wearing a dress from Saloni, a label created by Indian and London-based fashion designer Saloni Lodha.
Usha wore Saloni’s Fleur-F Silk Dress, which “draws inspiration from traditional Asian silhouettes,” according to the brand. The dress features a mandarin-style collar, clean lines with minimal detailing, a cinched waist and a column-style skirt. The second first lady completed her look with gold sandals and a white blazer.
