Ella Emhoff, the stylish stepdaughter of Vice President Kamala Harris, continues to make waves in the fashion world. Recently, she impressed attendees at the 2024 Democratic National Convention with a standout suit by Thom Browne. Her ensemble featured a navy blazer with the designer’s signature armbands, a checkered pattern, and padded shoulders, paired with a white button-down shirt and navy tie. She was there to support her father, Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff, who was speaking in Chicago.
Ella’s fashion journey has been remarkable. With a degree from Parsons School of Design, she first caught the public’s eye in 2021 when she wore a striking Miu Miu outfit at Joe Biden’s inauguration. That same year, she made her runway debut at New York Fashion Week with Proenza Schouler and signed with IMG Models Worldwide, joining a roster that includes Cara Delevingne and Gigi Hadid.
Her fashion sense was further showcased at the 2021 Met Gala, where she donned an eye-catching red Adidas by Stella McCartney outfit, complete with sheer elements and accessories from Cartier. Beyond modeling, Ella is a talented artist and the founder of Soft Hands, a company focused on fashion, design, and creative consulting. She also runs a knit club and shares her knitted artworks on Instagram, reflecting her passion for creative design.
