From New York City with glove! The eye-catching leather gloves first lady Jill Biden wore for the inauguration were made by Wing & Weft, the last remaining custom glovemaker in the Garment District. “Historically, we have built custom gloves for many first ladies,” Wing & Weft owner Katie Sue Nicklos told The Post. “Dr. Biden is a new client to us, but we hope to be able to glove her for the rest of the time she serves as first lady and beyond.” In all, Biden wore three Wing & Weft creations: the bold turquoise pair that perfectly matched her tweed coat by Markarian during the swearing-in ceremony, a lavender set for her visit to the COVID-19 memorial service on Tuesday and a creamy white duo on inauguration night. First daughter Ashley Biden and her daughters also wore Wing & Weft for the presidential festivities. To create the silk-lined, six-button (elbow-length) leather gloves, Nicklos matched fabric swatches provided by Biden’s styling team to soft Cabretta leather skins she hand-picked while on a trip to England two years ago. “The Biden team knew exactly what they wanted. I have all of these beautiful colors. And I had a teal one that matched perfectly.
