With her statuesque figure, they could have used the exact same color, but done the dress in a simple,straighter, Greek/Roman style. She is in good shape, not fat at all. Maybe they were afraid to be honest with her.
It is unusual fabric, to say the least, do you think they have to worry about knock-offs? ;)
I think so too. Michelle does well with clean, straight lines in clothing and deep, rich colors. The style of her teal dress at the Dem convention was good and she's worn some flattering colors throughout the campaign. The camel and black outfit the other day was very nice.
What happened today is inexplicable. She is listening to the wrong people.
She is not a ruffles and femininity type person.
People could just go up into the attic and find the old bedspreads and make a dress just like this one.
