Is that woman in blue, the British Prime Minister's wife? Her outfit makes me think of Dolly Parton's comment at some awards show, when the dress she was wearing split at the tush. She came out on stage wearing some guys suit coat wrapped around her waist, told the audience what had happened, and said that her Daddy would have said "That's what happens when you try to put 10 pounds of potatoes in a 5 lb. sack!"
Ladies of a certain age and mid to larger size need some sort of foundation garments for the bottom half. Girdles are medieval torture devices, but there are some really nice lightweight shapers these days that help control bulges. Of course, nothing helps if the dress is a size too small!
woooooo...what an ugly outfit...and you are right about the other woman, too....yikes
