Kennedy for a White House visit in December 1960. What’s the proper attire? The swearing-in ceremony and parade are outside, and it’s typically pretty cold in the District in January. Visitors should wear warm clothes in layers. The balls are formal affairs, kind of like a prom for adults, but even at those events, there are long lines for admission, drinks and food–and typically no seating in the ballrooms. What’s the theme? “A New Birth of Freedom” is the 2009 inauguration theme, commemorating the 200th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s birth.
