Hillary Clinton honors famous women from history with Met Gala dress
The Hill ^ | 5/2/2022 | Sarah Polus

Hillary Clinton gave a subtle nod to influential women of the past with her gown at Monday night’s Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute benefit.

The former secretary of State attended the annual black-tie fundraiser in a burgundy gown embroidered on the neckline and hem with the names of 60 women who have inspired her, including Harriet Tubman, Sacagawea, Eleanor Roosevelt and her mother, Dorothy Rodham.

“I said, ‘What about American women in the past who have inspired me?” Clinton said of the dress concept while speaking to Vanessa Hudgens and Vogue editor at large Hamish Bowles.

Ultimately, Clinton and designer Joseph Altuzarra decided to feature women who were deceased, as otherwise, “I would have filled the entire dress [with names],” she said.

Wrong color - should have been blue. Added names? Juanita Broaddrick, Tara Reade, Gennifer Flowers, Ghislaine Maxwell, Energizer.

Most people who are overly critical of aging women haven’t looked in a mirror lately. Hate on Hillary for what she does and has done.

There’s a difference between “aging gracefully” and fighting it every step of the way but still losing in the end. The chipmunk cheeks, troweled-on makeup and overly-pulled back hairline is not attractive. My mom is 94 and looks a heck of a lot better without having all that desperate “work” done!

Hmmm...
Looking back, even Mamie Eisenhower was glamorous compared to that pathetically ugly POS...

Clever idea…wrong model!

I guess she didn’t want to completely copy A Oh, see.

Her dress is fabulous. It covers the cankles.

OK, that's her upper limit. That's as good as she is ever going to look. Beats the heck out of those pantsuits she borrowed from "The Wiggles",.

“Most people who are overly critical of aging women haven’t looked in a mirror lately. Hate on Hillary for what she does and has done.”

Many women age gracefully; Hillary isn’t. She’s the female version of the picture of Dorian Gray. Her facial features are all distorted,, with two knobs where cheeks should be.
