The First Lady's Dress is a Fashion FAIL...
Edited on Sat Apr-30-11 09:14 PM by rsmith6621

...my wife says to much cleavage/breast and it doesnt flatter her. Myself being a part time fashion photographer I think I would have been firm and said "Mrs Obama lets try something else"

Conservative would have been better.:sarcasm: :hi:

1. She's a Princeton and Harvard Law graduate and what matters
is what she is wearing?

21. She looked beautiful! I LOVED the color of the dress
as well as the cut. She should always show off her arms, they're perfect. And I love her hair that way. Very sexy!

3. That's one opinion. I disagree.
She isn't built like a stick but she doesn't look overexposed by a long shot, IMO. Hair and makeup are terrific.

14. Barely any cleavage was showing.....
She can't help it if she can wear that dress......cause you know,
it ain't everyone that can, and still look classy.

17. I don't usually like low cut dresses but I think Michelle is so striking that she can pull it off.

19. I am going to say something women don't usually say about other women
She looks really hot.

That is a great dress, and I think she does President Obama proud. I don't understand why occasionally she can't just be herself -- this is a correspondents dinner, not a State dinner or something truly formal.

Of course, this makes damn near everything right wing nuts say about her sound bad.

25. I actually like the dress and the color.
As for the cleavage, she doesn't have much of it to begin with, but I don't think that she was showing an inordinate amount of it.

27. That's the ONLY outfit/coiffieur combo she's worn which I disliked.
The dress looked too 'Marshall's'. She has good head shape and facial bone structure. All the messy layers of hair and the bangs looked borrowed from a whole nother person.

29. I didn't get a good look at it. But what I did see...I liked it a lot. Great color....
sleeveless as usual to show off her hot arms, cinched at the waist (but w/o those awful cumberbunds that she wears sometimes). I didn't see a whole length shot of it, though.

I didn't notice any cleavage. But like I say, I didn't get a long look at it. I think I would've noticed if boobs were hanging out or poofing out the top, though.

It's not the prettiest thing I've seen her wear but it is tasteful and appropriate. Pres. Obama's tuxedo looks fabulous too.

35. I thought it was the hottest she's ever looked
I don't want to have impure thoughts about the first lady, but I'd never seen her hair that way, and the dress showed off her well-toned upper body perfectly.

She was smokin' !!!

44. I wouldn't wear it, but
it looks great on her! If I were that tall, and as fit, and as young, maybe I'd go with something like that. IMHO it's one of her better outfits.
