Michelle Obama’s Fashion Flop at the Debate
Tonight was the presidential debate here in the great city of Nashville, TN. So, naturally, NashVogue was paying attention to the fashion choices of our two potential first ladies. The winner? Cindy McCain.
Michelle’s Look: She wore a short, simple red dress with sequined bows on the neckline. This might have been a great dress for say a high school reunion, church on Sunday, or, maybe, mother of the bride?? Pretty much every other first lady or even potential first lady has worn a suit when in the public eye. Now, I am all for mixing things up, but this dress was NOT the way. A) It did not flatter her body. B) It was almost too casual for the situation. C) Sequins? Really? Michelle, you are typically a stylish woman…what happened??
Cindy’s look: Cindy’s suit was a classic blue suit. The color is very in style this season. The cut was classic and very appropriate for a potential first lady. The cut flattered her body type. Kudos to Mrs. McCain!
As a side note – I found it very interesting that both women were wearing the “color” of the opposite party. Also, pictures to follow tomorrow when I can find them.
