Michelle Obama Fashion – Red Debate Dress; Christmas or Classic?
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008
Well Mrs. Obama, your red knit sheath dress worn during tonight’s second presidential debate (Narcisco Rodriguez), definitely fared better than the Thakoon worn at the first debate. The contrasting color against your skin tone was gorgeous and the princess seams gave you a defined waistline (although you still appeared a bit “bottom-heavy”). One question though. Why the three green bows? I get that you like bows and perhaps bows, along with the sheath dress, are part of your signature style, but why green bows on a red dress. Tell the truth. When you took that last look in the mirror, did you not once think of Christmas?
Here’s my two cents. Accessories are intended to pull an outfit together not take over the look. If you’re not certain as to whether or not you’ve overaccessorized, try this trick. Stand in front of a full length mirror with your eyes closed for about five seconds. When you open your eyes, note the first thing you see. If it’s your face, perfect; you’re wearing the outfit. If the first thing you notice is the color of your outfit, then it’s probably not the right color for you. Finally, if it’s an accessory that you see first (belt, necklace, bracelet, green bows), then remove it.
Also, there’s nothing wrong with having curves and flaunting them. However, too much of anything is not good. I say stick with the creations of Chicago-base Maria Pinto
; Her choice of fabrics, wide set straps, fluted sleeves and peplum jackets have work beautifully to create an hourglass silhouette and give you a more balanced overall look.
