I’m reminded of all the times that Michelle Obama wore outlandish, rather ugly outfits and we laughed and laughed. This one is right up there with Obama’s worst.
I agree. She looks like a waiter.
Weird outfit. not feminine at all.
I wish she at least did something special with her hair.
Mrs Vance looked FANTASTIC!
Never appropriate for a state dinner. Agree on that. Reminds me — speaking of the news of this week, the sad news about NASCAR Hall of Famer Darrell Waltrip with his brain symptoms caused by CTE.
Mr. Waltrip was part of a contrast at the 1999 GMA Dove Awards presenting Song of the Year with Kathy Troccoli (whom I’ve met a few times). He wore a traditional black tie outfit (your standard tuxedo), going to the Waldorf-Astoria (where NASCAR was hosting Prizegiving at the time). Miss Troccoli wore a tapestry pattern jacket with black trousers (that outfit, known by some as the “cheesy suit” best known for the GMA Dove incident with the then-52 year old driver) that she reprised on the jazz standard album “Together” (with Sandi Patty) later that year. In this case, if the presenter is dressed for a formal or a state dinner, he set the high standard.
The rule I have said is, “If the guy’s dressed for a State Dinner, then the gal has to dress the same way too.” In that case, the woman wasn’t right.
In this case, Melania isn’t right either. Makes me miss the days when Fox News required sheath dresses on women when men wore suits.
She’s a well known model. She cuts the fashion edge. She looked great. The outfit was fabulous. Usha, Jeanette and Peng all looked nice. Melania rocked.
