That's flat out unfounded. Larua Bush was/is always stylish.
That said, I LIKED the yellow-green daytime inagural ensemble (except the shoes, which made my feet hurt just watching). I think a pair of fetching high boots like Condi Rice is wont to wear would have kicked it up a notch.
The ball gown ... uh, no, its not working for Mrs. Obama.
But she has plenty of time to be adventurous with fashion, to experiment with different styles ... so, no harm, no foul.
I think she is very UN-confident of her appearance. She’s too tall, she stoops, she has no breasts and too big a middle and much too big a bottom. Nice legs though. She should find a person who cares to make her more attractive in her clothes. Why did not she find this makeover person before today? THAT I do not understand. Maybe everyone always said she was too beautiful? Don’t get it otherwise.
In respectable fashion-speak, that's the equivalent of: "Your blind date has a wonderful personality."
The dress was hideous and it doesn’t matter what she wears she’s ugly. She has gorilla teeth and mouth and she’s bigger than zer0.
They're going to try to convince us that Michelle O is "glamorous," when in fact, she is anything but.
But the weaker-minded people who fall for the media's mind-control tactics will buy into it.
Her brother is the head basketball coach at Oregon State University.
He’s bald.
Put a wig on his head, and he’s a dead ringer for Michelle.
Truth be told, someone is giving her bad fashion advice.
She should be wearing simple, and classically designed, clothes.
In gem tones...bold colors.
She’s too LARGE to wear marshmallow...or chartreuse.
As a single, horny male I find nothing attractive at all about Mrs Obama. It has nothing to do with race or party lines, she just doesn’t present herself as very feminine. Doesn’t matter what dress she has on. She moves and acts very manly, I said it in another thread, she looks like a gawky WNBA player.
“Tell a Story with Fashion”
Yes, a horror story
Right off hand, I can’t remember her wearing anything that actually flattered her. I can remember her wearing many things that did NOT flatter her. I hate her taste in clothing. Don’t understand all the frenzy over her clothing. She is tall, big boned and hippy - those things should drive her clothing choices, but obviously do not. She shows up in too young girlish things one event and things my mother would wear the next event.
She’s got a big butt, a very big butt.
As for the yellow dress, I liked the jacket, the dress however, with the same fabric was way too busy, and the rhinestone neckline was horrendous, you do not wear faux diamonds like that during the day, besides that it did not go with that particular neckline or dress, to me it made the dress look trashy. And I can’t figure out where the idea of green gloves and shoes came from, they clashed.
Now the gown, yuk! It did not look sleek and sophisticated. The over the shoulder strap looked too bunched up and was way too thick, and those things sewn on, what were they? I agree with comments that it looked like an old bedspread. She really needs a new stylist.
My Wife said it looked like a MOP.
Now he's busy at work to impregnate the unremarkable Michellemybelle with the ghostly ethers of Jacqueline Kennedy.
He must have had long consultations with the scientists who cloned Dolly the sheep in order to feel confident enough to pull off the double metaphorphis.
This presidency is getting underway on a creepy, surrealistic note.

There, fixed it. Now it describes the new first wife.
She looked like John Belushi at the toga party (Animal House for those of you under 40)
Seriously, this woman should think about wearing solid colors. Even Hillary's blue pantsuit looks better.
Yes, this is a family heirloom ..
passed down by generations
though modernized from the original concept
In fact we have the more material to make coordinating outfits for our daughters
