C'mon, adoring media, keep telling us what a fashion icon this woman is.Mrs O is a clever woman: pretending to have just thrown on any old holiday number whilst actually acknowledging pioneering catwalk ideas is no mean feat, she is probably laughing at all the criticism as I write.I don't call her fashion choices confident. More like colorblind.
Unfortunately, those three-dimensional flowers, that strange orange snake working its way around her middle and the yellow curtain pelmet are impossible to defend.
As a stack, they look like one of those modern, fancy wedding cakes that brides’ co-ordinate with their flowers. For a woman who established her look on the principles of sophistication and elegance, the detailing is just a bit too sugary.
And the spotted plastic belt? Well, put it this way, her favourite Alaia studded one need not worry about the competition. So, this outfit isn’t 100 per cent faultless, but at least the First Lady has the confidence to have fun with what she wears. It takes a brave woman to wear pink daisies. And bloggers rejoice, her arms are covered too.
Update: Since a commenter suggests it looks like the old Houston Astros uniform, you can make the comparison:
Eh, not so much. How about the old Vancouver Canucks sweater?
Well, considering she could pass for Dikembe Mutombo, how about the old Denver Nuggets jersey?
