I don’t know about other ladies, but if my hair was looking like that (and my clothes too), I’d be running AWAY from the camera.

The woman who does my hair would probably get a hernia laughing at that ‘do.

Sometimes you can’t sell ugly.

The First Lady's past comments show pretty clearly that she doesn't think much of America, and I consider that very ugly. But in all fairness there have been much uglier First Ladies as far as looks go.

The arm holes on that turquoise number are the hugest I have ever seen other than on tee shirts with the sleeves ripped off. Worn by men!

I guess,but it is kinda funny one of her dressmakers going bankrupt..
How is all that hope and change stuff working out.:)

[Jet Jaguar]

Nodding.

With the state-run media still forcing the meme that Michelle Obama is the second coming of Jackie O, you’d think she’d have some coattails in the fashion industry. But, no, her favorite designer is going bankrupt a year into the Obama administration.

It should be clear to anyone who can relate cause to effect, that Michelle Obama’s look is neither admired nor sought after. The bankruptcy of Maria Pinto amply demonstrates this. But, we’re dealing with socialists and their propaganda organ, so all logic flies out the window, in matters as trifling and symbolic as a First Lady’s clothing, or as pressing as the unwanted socialization of healthcare or skyrocketing unemployment.

My grandmother always said “ugly is as ugly does” and Michelle O does ugly better than ANY First Lady ever has. It’s not really about what she wears, it’s the ‘tude that goes with it.

[Persevero]

That is the first picture of M. Obama I have SEEN where I thought she had on a nice outfit.

Very pretty dress!

[txhurl]

If you look closely, there IS a boob belt stitched in that dress. Maybe where she got the craving from.

[Persevero]

Oh, that’s just a bodice.

Whatever, I wouldn’t comment on M. Obama’s appearance, except for the fact that she keeps getting held up as some sort of gorgeous fashion plate.

She is neither.

I didn’t comment on Hilary’s appearance when she was first lady, because she was not being touted as a gorgeous fashion plate. I don’t think it is fair to criticize people on their appearance, unless they are being deliberately offensive.

But Michelle is constantly being promoted as the next Jackie Kennedy. All credit to Jackie for that; she was beautiful and always very well dressed. Michelle I find embarrassing!

[eyedigress]

Her ass really does make her pants look fat. Barumbo needs to come clean.

[dalereed]

That explains why everything she has worn is terminally ugly!

[eyedigress]

We’re both going to kicked out of here! Cheers

[Doctor DNA]

The Obama touch.

[Ms. Petite]

LOL

[Hetty_Fauxvert]

Hm ... Maybe it was all those high-waisted dresses with wide belts ... that made her look like a sack of potatoes with a string around the middle. Maybe?

[dixiechick2000]

I guess hopey isn’t working for this designer...but change seems to be to the max!

Too bad...so sad...

Note to self: Don’t celebrate someone else’s misfortune, don’t celebrate someone else’s misfortune, don’t celebrate, don’t, don’t - well, sometimes you just can’t overcome those spontaneous urges -

But in all fairness there have been much uglier First Ladies as far as looks go.

While I find Michelle angry and unattractive, I was referring to her choice in designer clothes rather than to her personal looks. Some of those huge belts she favored look like mini-suicide vests!
