We all have colors that we favor, and first ladies are no different. They are just as likely to become known over time for favoring certain hues. All first ladies have at least one red, white, or blue moment during their tenure, but they're more often dressed in muted tones. The mold notably broke when Michelle Obama was first lady. She typically wore bold, bright colors (Jackie Kennedy and Betty Ford didn't exclusively wear muted tones, but they certainly weren't dressing as boldly as Obama — at least not on a regular basis).

Casey DeSantis and Melania Trump both followed in Obama's footsteps by dressing according to palettes of their own liking, though a little more in keeping with traditional first lady choices than Obama. Trump is very much a fan of neutrals, usually dressed in black, white, khaki, brown, and olive, but she isn't afraid of color. The former model sports jewel tones now and again, and she's shown she's a big fan of a monochromatic look. What Trump is rarely seen in, however, is a pattern. She favors structure and color blocking.

DeSantis favors a pastel palette. Some of her most notable looks have included a powder blue ensemble, a baby blue dress, and a seafoam green dress. DeSantis does wear bolder colors, like a strong red or yellow, on occasion, but most of her wardrobe for public events consists of softer colors.
