On Tuesday night, at her final state dinner as first lady, Michelle Obama solidified her legacy as perhaps the most adept and successful practitioner of the art of political dressing that any administration has seen.
Her choice of an Atelier Versace gown for the Italy state dinner was not only a nice bit of sartorial diplomacy Versace being an Italian success story, a company often touted as a candidate for a public offering but, coming less than a week after her magnetic speech in New Hampshire on women and respect, it went far beyond being simply an ambassadorial nod to a guest countrys talent and made a powerful subliminal statement.
The dress, after all, was made of rose gold chain mail. As much as it was gracefully cut and draped, it also spoke of armor and female strength, of the need to gird yourself to fight for what you believe in. And it was designed by Donatella Versace, a woman who was famously thrust into one of the most difficult situations of all: having to take over and preserve the company founded by her brother after his murder in Miami. And who, despite a fair number of doubts, has ultimately triumphed in part by transforming the aesthetic of her company from one built on the power of sex to one built on the power of self. (snip)
Especially because Ms. Versace then said, I am humbled and honored to have the opportunity to dress the first lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. Thank you Michelle for all the things you did for America and for the rest of the world, for the women in the U.S. and the rest of the world.

Rachel must be drinking her EVOO.
Then explain why her husband's little Barry was saluting everyone on the plane.
Yeah, I had a similar reacton: "Wow, linebacker in a dress."
I don’t think its a wig. It’s probably flat-ironed. A vast improvement from how her hair usually looks imo. There is a rear shot of her that is not flattering at all.
Phew! Those are man arms.
..............................
That is a beautiful dress but those arms ruin the whole look.
25 stoopids doing their best to make this wookie bitch look human and she still looks like a shelf ass ugly wookie bitch.
Nice of her to bring along her monkey though
I think the dress itself is gorgeous...but not the most flattering to MO’s body. Neverthess I think MO is doing the best she can given what she’s got to work with...man sized shoulders, BIG rear...etc.
I was thinking the same thing. She looks like one of the Chicago Bears linemen in drag.
Michelle O is a Chude, O himself is gay. The perfect power couple of the new millenia.
Ah, yes. Jerry Seinfeld’s wife, Jessica. The woman famous for announcing a divorce the instant she was back from her honeymoon and then getting it back on w/Jerry. I don’t remember the name of that poor slob she married, but she must still be an interesting topic at family dinners at his house, even that was a long time ago now.
In our lifetime, this tranny will be exposed. What a fraud “family”.
Buns of thunder.
Don’t worry. These grifters will, continue to have their weekly parties at the white hut for the various scummy hiphoppers and rapsters. There is taxpayers’ money to be spent.

Nice dress, but what is it with the bulge between her legs?
5.56mm
That’s the first dress I have ever seen with a set of high beams mounted on the rear.
More golf leaf than a Trump reception hall on that.
