Previously, in July, Mrs. Clinton also wore white at the night she officially became the Democratic Party's representative to run for the White House at the party's National Convention.

In an article in USA Today, white was mentioned as one of the three main colors of the women’s suffrage movement. Some believe that the colors were chosen as a shorthand for Hillary’s slogan “Give Women the Right to Vote.”

In a statement by the American Congressional Union for Women's Suffrage, it was explained: “The colors chosen by the Union are purple, white, and gold, chosen for their significance and mission. Purple is the color of loyalty, steadfastness of purpose, unchangeable in any cause. White is the symbol of purity, symbolizing the nobility of our purposes.”

It has also been suggested that suffragettes in the early 20th century wore white because it symbolized purity, helping to protect them from accusations of immorality from their enemies.

The Times also noted that Geraldine Ferraro wore white when she was officially nominated to become the first female vice presidential candidate for a major American party at the 1984 Democratic convention.

So it can be predicted that Mrs. Clinton's choice of outfit was intended to appeal to patriotism and recall the history of women's struggle for equality in America.
