Michelle Obama adds another designer to her United Nations fashion portfolio.
America's First Lady Michelle Obama's holiday wardrobe this year includes a vibrant, patchwork, folkloric dress by the London-based Nigerian designer, Duro Olowu.
The dress, a funky, layered, smock-style, features at least five different silk prints.
Mrs Obama was photographed wearing the dress while out for dinner this week, with her husband, in Martha's Vineyard. She has previously worn Duro Olowu's designs in 2008 and 2009, and has long been a 'collector' of the newest and most eclectic brands on Planet Fashion, assembling a United Nations-style wardrobe since her husband was elected.
Her fashion portfolio includes designs by the Taiwan-born Jason Wu; Thakoon Panichgul, who was born in Thailand; the Chilean-born, Maria Cornejo; Narciso Rodriguez, the only son of Cuban immigrants; London's Erdem Moralioglu, who is of Turkish-Canadian descent; the Manhattan-based Naeem Khan, who was born in Mumbai; and the London-based Glaswegian, Jonathan Saunders, along with mainstream brands such as Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein and Oscar de la Renta.

A global wardrobe and she still manages to look horrific 90+% of the time. Thanks for the ping.

Those two would have to check into rehab after seeing that dress. It looks like it is made out of an old tent and some mismatched drapes. Plus it has no shape. To sum up: it looks like crap. Close your eyes and imagine Jackie Kennedy in that get-up.

Next to the classy Laura Bush, Michelle Obama looks like a vagrant.

The dress, a funky, layered, smock-style, features at least five different, ugly silk prints. Many of her outfits include apparently random assortments of colors, patterns, trims, and styles. I know that can appeal to a person, because some of my kids put together clothes like that, but it just doesn't work for an adult. The wife of the President of the US shouldn't go around looking like Mom gave her $10 to pick things out at The Salvation Army.
And stand up straight, Michelle. Yes, you're taller than he is. In a philosphical sense, everyone is. So STAND UP.
