BY Ll DSAY HICKS Afanagmg Afosatc Et111or ln a letter to her daug ht er-in-law, Florence Harding expressed her feelings regarding th e pres­ sure of fi rst ladyship: " I bate cloth es." It might not have been clothes she hated, rather th e expectat ion that a first lady wear a dif­ ferent outfit for every event, every meal and every moment in the public eye, says raig Schermer, the official hi storian for the National First Ladies' Li brary in anton, Ohio. Mrs. Harding's letter is one artifact among invoices, cocktail dresses, book' and other donated belongings featured at the 6-year-old museum. People don 't reali ze the kind of pressure pres­ idents' wives face to change th eir appearance for each paJi of th e day, Schermer says. Very formal, stri ct etiquette requires first ladies to wear a certain dress in th e allernoon, evening, teatime and for any other event, and no dress wi ll ever be worn twic·e. Society is, however, quick to point out every flaw made by the first lady and anafyze it as a sym­ . bol of her character. Fashi on plays an important role in the overall image, he says, and th e line between good and bad is a fine one. "We like a first lady that likes to be tradition" al, but we don 't mind if she's a little bit innova­ tive," Schermer says, " but not too irlllovative." Women are criti cal about what first ladies wear, w ho they' re seen with and how they conduct the mselves. " How many times did poor Hil lary C linton change her hairstyle?" he asks. "We're never sati s­ fied with what we've got." When Presid ent Warren G. Harding entered office, Schermer says Mrs. Harding insisted the rnedia neither quote nor take any pictures of her. She kn ew the power of a photograph. Mrs. Harding first used her keen understand­ ing to manipulate her image during the president's campaign, he says. When a photographer contacted Mrs. Harding to request a picture of her seated on a bicycle for her husband 's campaign biography, she refused. The 60-ycar-old hated the thought of the publi c seeing her riding a bicycle. To dodge the unflattering pose, Mrs. Harding said if the publi c wants a picture, she would have to dress up. " She took control of images of herself, because she didn't li ke im ages of herself," Schermer says. She then purcha ed and posed in th1·ee custom­ . made dresses.
