“Another 40 jobs created or saved right there”
… says Michelle Obama’s Mirror’s Blog about the gown:
Evening. Naeem Kahn – Indian born American based designer. Oh, how clever of Lady M! “The dress is entirely handmade, requiring three weeks of work by 40 people, completed in Naeem Kahn’s family workshop in India.” So that’s another 40 jobs created or saved right there.
As you know, I have severely criticized Michelle Obama’s poor (too rich?) fashion choices and her posture.
Last night, however, Michelle Obama finally wore a beautiful dress, that fit her perfectly, was exactly proportioned for her, and the color was exactly right for her. She did not over acessorize with jewelry, and her hair was perfectly coiffed. Best yet, she managed to carry herself with the right poise and posture as the photo shows.
The Anchoress says it’s Beautiful and Well Played Mrs. O.
Let’s hope Mrs. O gives up the silly cardigans and the ridiculous ammo belts.
In other Obama news, guess who’s interviewing the Obamas for Christmas. I’m sorely tempted to take up golf instead.
But then, there’s always tango.
