What Not To Wear, Ever. Episode 2751
Michelle Obama's Mirror ^ | 8-3-2016 | MOTUS

Posted on 08/03/2016 5:29:14 AM PDT by NOBO2012

Another whimsical notion from the unflinching Daily Mail, this time regarding the frock Lady M chose for last night’s state dinner honoring Singapore:

We're going to file this one under: BREATHTAKING.

Michelle Obama stole the show at this evening's state dinner wearing a strapless gown that folded over at the neckline and cinched in her waist before it elegantly fell to the floor with its splendid statement cape.

Would we expect anything less from the First Lady of Style? [ed.I couldn’t have put it better myself]

[ed. Does anyone other than me think this “folded over at the neckline” look is a bit derivative of Mary Tyler Moore’s costume in Change of Habit?]

In typical Michelle Obama fashion, she chose an up and coming designer for this evening's stunning custom-made look by Brandon Maxwell. With a penchant for dramatic silhouettes,

Maxwell has made a name for himself in the fashion world by creating some (of) Lady Gaga's most memorable costumes and red-carpet ensembles.

Oh yes, trust me; it could have been much worse.

And the Butani diamond earrings looked nice with the “dramatic smokey eye” and pink lips.

I’m sure Singapore was impressed.

She permanently has this sardonic expression revealing her disappointment with everything and everyone. She finds joy in nothing.

Being First Lady could have been the greatest experience of her life but instead she regards it as a chore . . . and a boring one at that.

I can’t understand having an expensive make up artist and then going out with this bizarre eyebrows

YOU NAILED IT!

She COULD HAVE motivated black people to see how wonderful life can be when you achieve everything you ever could have dreamed of...

Instead she bad-mouthed the ‘job’ and the country constantly.

Talk about bad-manners.

She does seem like someone who finds no joy in anything.

Sorry, but I don’t see any definition in the arms at all. I certainly don’t see any bicep or Tri definition. But then, I work out constantly and maybe my view is skewed by the women I see at the gym who do work out regularly.

No they aren’t defined. Most men do work out. Her arms look like that of a relatively strong man.
