What would Thanksgiving Day be without more gushing over the Obamas? The Washington Post on Thursday declared That Michelle Obama’s “departure from the East Wing signaled the end of a singular era for American fashion.” The piece by Robin Givhan contrasts with the writer’s bashing of the looks of conservative women such as Carly Fiorina, who she mocked as a “style bully.”

Regarding Mrs. Obama, Givhan fawned, “She helped young people see that fashion is more than catwalk extravaganzas and ‘Project Runway.’"

Michelle Obama’s Departure Ends ‘Singular Era for American Fashion’

What - no more putting lipstick on a pig?

She was trying to be the American Standard.

And on January 20 we get to flush it...

What - no more putting lipstick on a pig?

That need for that stopped with Hillary's loss on November 8.

...wasn’t saying Melania was going to need 16 hairdressers..that’s what Moochie has now....

[Ezekiel]

but who even has that stuff on the floor of their closet

Somebody who doesn't have to pay for bad judgment.

[Tax-chick]

True.

[roostercogburn]

Only the WaPo would act as if going from The Beast to Melania is gonna cause some type of fashion drought at the White House.
The left loves any make, model, year...as long as it’s black.

To be fair, they found a better dress designer second term. Her first few appearances had my wife laughing.

[Stand Watch Listen]

Praise heavens the boon belt era is overrrr!

[Texan5]

16 hairdressers is an unnecessary expense-it souldn’t take more than one to make that big ol’ heifer’s hair look that badly styled-we need our money back...

[Doogle]

One body and fender guy...

[metmom]

Thank God.

[Stand Watch Listen]

That's BOOB. Belt...

[Cecily]

The top of that white gown should have been less "busy" since needed to wear gloves. She did better with these two:

[CaptainPhilFan]

And thank God for multiple miracles.

That said - Can we PLEASE bring back stockings or hose for women? Bare legs look so tacky for formal occasions or anything dressier than a summer picnic.

I don’t know who, when or where the “no hose” look came into fashion but can we end it now? Unless you have stunning, flawless skin it just looks gross.

Thank you. Someone else may have the Talking Stick.

If you like your boob belt, you can keep it.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

The one I posted had been shopped quite well. Sort of subtle. Check out her body proportions.

[dandiegirl]

Something is definitely wrong with her arms in that picture. Are they really that long?

[OldMissileer]

A singular era of a 1st lady wearing clothes made from floral printed furniture and drapery fabric on almost every occasion-she always looks like she killed a couch and is wearing the skin as a trophy...

I just laughed so hard I almost choked on the water I am drinking!

I hope you don't mind but I am keeping this to use on some other forums when needed.
