RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia
I stand by my Martha Washington answer. The images of her wedding shoes on the Mt Vernon website sure seem purple to me:

As for the inaugural dress question, $46,000 for a dress seems excessive, even for today. If it's not Jackie Kennedy, my first guess would be Nancy Reagan since she had been an actress and designers routinely loan them extravagant overpriced dresses for Red Carpet events. However, your "deep pockets" comment gives me pause on that. The two richest Presidents of the late 20th century were Lyndon Johnson and Bill Clinton. I'm going to go with Lady Bird Johnson.
