The most memorable part of the Inauguration was obviously the swearing-in of America’s first African American president. The second most memorable part? It just might be Aretha Franklin’s hat.

The Smithsonian certainly seems to think it was a vital piece of the celebration. The museum is requesting the bow with a hat attached for its exhibit on Obama’s Inauguration. The exhibit already includes the Jason Wu dress Michelle wore to the festivities.

However, Franklin isn’t so keen on giving up the goods.
