Oprah Winfrey made a unexpected appearance at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago – and we are still gagging. Dressed in a striking purple power suit from Christian Siriano, Oprah exuded confidence, elegance, and royalty as only Mother Oprah can.

Oprah’s Wednesday night speech at the DNC was not just a surprise, but also a significant moment. There to support the first-ever Black woman presidential candidate – during her first-ever DNC stage appearance – Oprah’s moment underscored the importance of the upcoming election and Vice President Kamala Harris‘ growing legacy.

“We’re now so fired up, we can’t wait to leave here and do something, and what we’re gonna do is elect Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States,” Oprah told the excited crowd.

Mother Oprah Takes Over The DNC Stage In Her Power Color: Purple

When Oprah took over the DNC podium, she made a strong style statement many will never forget. Amid times when politics and fashion often intersect, Oprah chose a purple ensemble, proving why she will forever be a culture icon and undeniable powerhouse.

Oprah’s suit of choice was a sleek and modern take on a classic silhouette. It included a fitted blazer, monochromatic finish, and wide-leg bottoms. Every inch of the suit was tailored to the multihyphenate perfectly. She paired her suit with simple black pumps.

The media mogul’s connection and the color purple go together real bad. In 2022 and 2023, Oprah frequently slayed in the royal hue, promoting her film, The Color Purple, while embodying its essence and significance.

But this purple play seemed different. Oprah’s ensemble was a purple power suit in every sense of the word, designed to make a statement about the strength, influence and resilience of Black women. No one rocks purple and makes people listen like Queen Oprah, but no one needs to.

Oprah Winfrey Publicly Throws Her Support Behind Vice President Kamala Harris

To that end, Oprah doesn’t often do political endorsements. Fans know her political opinions are rare and influential. The first time Oprah endorsed a political candidate was in 2007 when she publicly supported then-Senator Barack Obama.

Today, her voice and presence hold just as much – if not more – weight.

Oprah is a staunch champion and advocate for women and women’s rights. She remains arguably one of the most influential Black women of our time.

Her influence transcends generations, coasts, and industries. Oprah’s endorsement of VP Harris is not only a stamp of approval but also a powerful statement of empowerment, possibility, and change to the world. By lending her voice and platform, Oprah is signaling that the time for women, especially Black women, to rise to the highest levels of leadership is now.
