Brooklyn Talks: The Sartorial Vision of Michelle Obama [Lol!]
Brooklyn Museum ^ | 9/2/2021 | Staff

Posted on 09/03/2021 6:13:27 PM PDT by simpson96

From Inauguration Day to her official portrait by Amy Sherald (on view as part of our special exhibition The Obama Portraits Tour), First Lady Michelle Obama powerfully expressed the values and vision of the Obama White House through her sartorial choices. Explore the former First Lady’s culture-shifting style with image strategist Meredith Koop—who has been Michelle Obama’s stylist since 2010, in the White House and for subsequent appearances—and fashion historian Kimberly M. Jenkins, Assistant Professor of Fashion Studies, Ryerson University, and principal researcher for The Fashion and Race Database. The two discuss some of Michelle Obama’s key looks, starting with her official portrait, and explore the intersection between fashion and politics.

All visitors 12 and older must show proof of vaccination and a valid I.D. Masks are required regardless of vaccination status.

Tickets are $30 and include after-hours admission to The Obama Portraits Tour. Member tickets are $20. Not a Member? Join today!

Feel free to share your favorite Mooch fashion disasters.

We could all use a good laugh this evening, I'm sure.

Oh, they’re dragging out that junior high-level “official portrait” again.

So you must wear a mask regardless of you Vax status but you must be vaxxed- makes sense. Show up with out a mask and just tell them, “I thought this was an obama birthday party”

Mygawd don’t people have frickin’ mirrors?! She thinks she looks great and everyone around her tells her she does.
Not since People Magazine named Chelsea Clinton one of the “world’s most beautiful people” have I been so stunned by the BS. Chelsea Clinton. Think about that while you’re looking at Big Foots’s fashion statements. shiver..

If this doesn’t smack of desperation, I don’t know what does.

My fav was the dress Michelle wore election night. Looked like someone had thrown a tomato on her dress. I don’t know how to post it here.

sartorial: “It’s easy to uncover the root of sartorial. Just strip off the suffix -ial and you discover the Latin noun sartor, meaning “tailor” (literally, “one who patches or mends”).”

No kidding.

Is the Brooklyn Museum planning an exhibit on ‘The Sartorial Vision of Melania Trump’ any time soon? Melania, after all, was a fashion model and might have an idea or two on ‘sartorial vision’ and her husband grew up right next door in Queens.
