The first White House state dinner of President Joe Biden's administration drew big names Thursday from fashion, entertainment, politics and business who turned out to help celebrate French President Emmanuel Macron and the return of large social events after the pandemic.
Shoe designer Christian Louboutin — wearing a crystal bolo tie — said "I have no idea" when asked how many women might be wearing his red-soled shoes for the night, and wouldn't hazard a guess. Vogue editor Anna Wintour also was among the 338 names on the guest list.
Before dinner, which ran late, Biden offered a toast "to the history that binds us and the values that still unite us, and the future we're going to forge together. Vive la France and God Bless America." With the tent ready and the tables set for the big dinner, hostess Jill Biden earlier Thursday took her French counterpart to a language museum to highlight their mutual interest in learning and their growing friendship.
