The coat is stunning! And I admire the beauty of the work every time I view it. I understand that the intention of the flowers are to create unity, the greatest need our country faces, and though the Delaware flower is to represent the state from which Mrs. Biden is from, as President Biden's wife, by placing it more predominantly than the other flowers, it lost the concept.

Elegant in its simplicity, and so much in tune with the times. As a teacher myself, I love the lining. So exquisite!

A beautiful piece of artwork "painted" with embroidery on an elegant coat and dress. I don't think most people knew that all of the state's flowers are embroidered on them--I sure did not until now! Thanks so much for sharing!

Jill Biden's dress and coat are truly art. I wish I could
see and touch the beautiful threads. Fabulous!

Also, Princess Di’s veil had all the state flowers
embroidered on the bottom of.

Stunningly beautiful. Not the first to use such a design. Queen Elizabeth's coronation gown was embroidered with all of the flora and jewels from the British empire at the time. Dr. Biden wore this so well. I hope it moves quickly to the Smithsonian!

Wow, just wow. I can appreciate the work that went into
making this coat and dress. I also appreciate the sentiment that created this design. I am a beginning machine embroiderer and wish to someday create a
masterpiece, although, I doubt, nowhere close to this one.
