Michelle And Moschino: An Italian Love Affair

Washington Post:

The design team at Moschino, led by Rossella Jardini, didn't even realize that Michelle Obama was wearing one of the company's ensembles the first few times it happened. She'd selected a chartreuse suit for a campaign rally in Iowa. But she'd cinched the belt, which had been sold with the collarless, hip-length jacket, in a pleasingly eccentric manner. It was tied in a bow and then adorned with an abstract brooch that looked vaguely Native American. Later, at the Democratic National Convention, she wore the jacket with black trousers. And without a belt. The result was to render the suit virtually unrecognizable to its own designer. Not that that was a bad thing.

I sometimes think these posts must be all populated by trust fund babies and welfare recipients. i.e. clueless people who are as tone deaf to the hard times as the Obama's.

The First Lady must have a clothing budget that could feed a small country. I know she wears run of the mill stuff too, which actually, usually looks better on her. But there are far wealthier people in public life who don't spend so much on trendy stuff that will be out of style in six months.. I am usually a big fan, but this is beginning to be a bit distasteful in these terribly hard times.
