See.. our mom really does matter in this presidential campaign. The fashion gurus and connoisseurs have already been at her shoes (LOL), because they know that WHEN Obama snags this presidency, Moma Michelle is going to need to be ready to TIP! According to The New York Post Mr. Peep-Toe himself, Andre Leon Talley has offered his expertise on making her just as BEAT as he made J.Hud! LMAO. Heres what they reported: June 18, 2008 -- LAST night's big Barack Obama Manhattan fund-raiser featuring his wife, Michelle, had some Democrats nervous - but not about politics. Along with Calvin Klein and Anna Wintour, the evening was hosted by Andre Leon Talley, a Vogue editor-at-large who played a large role dressing Jennifer ("Dreamgirls") Hudson for the Oscars. (Critics hated the gold python Bolero jacket Hudson wore for her acceptance speech.) "Andre wants to take over Michelle Obama the way he commandeered Jennifer Hudson," said our source. Talley told the Times earlier this month: "A black Camelot moment is the right moment for the Obamas, and so the faux pearls, the A-line dresses, the Jackie flip are obviously all part of how her image strategy has evolved." Some Dems fear that in the months ahead, Talley, a huge fan of Oscar de la Renta, will steer Michelle into a Bolero jacket or an outfit even more ill-advised.
Now I LOVE ALT... really I do, but he did nothing for J. Hud that Ashley Stewart couldn't pull off! Now for Michelle, those looks that Phiefer presented earlier this week will be very fitting for her look. A touch of class, and glitz mixed with a hint of regal-ness will place Michelle where she needs to be during and after this journey!
((...GO get em MOM!))
