Complete Headline: 'It's dreadful what she wears': Vivienne Westwood slams Michelle Obama's fashion choices for being too conservative

Vivienne Westwood has attacked Michelle Obama's style, calling is 'dreadful,' because her fashion choices din't 'suit' her and are too 'conservative'.

The provocative 71-year-old fashion designer, who showed her fall 2013 collection at Paris Fashion Week on Saturday, told The New York Times: 'It's dreadful what she wears'.

As a spokeswoman for the environmental group Climate Revolution, Ms Westwood said she didn't care for The First Lady's recyclable wardrobe, saying: 'Don't talk about her.'

'I don't want to talk about it. Really, I can't. She's a very nice looking lady, but it's a nonstarter regarding clothes that suit her,' she said in the interview with Eric Wilson.

'Jackie Kennedy was a different matter altogether. It just has to suit her and be something that makes a human being more glamorous. That's what fashion is there for. It's there to help, not just to make you look more conservative.'

Personally, I think that the term slob better describes the Royal Rump's fashion sense than conservative ... but what do I know?

Barack and Michelle Obama -- most conservative administration ever! The experts agree: Obamas need to be more radical and push harder to shake this country up.

They are not conservative, they are trashy.

I have a friend whose wife thinks FLOTUS is some kind of fashion maven. I once had a series of photos of Michelle and her atrocious taste in clothing and would appreciate it if someone knew of a website featuring Michelle and her tacky taste. Please help me out so I can set this friend straight...

Moochelle doesn't dress "too conservative"....her clothes are alternately tasteless, tacky, sloppy, not apropos for the season or occasion, poorly-designed and not kind to her physical body flaws.

Her wardrobe is always inconsistent......alternating between okay and terrible.

Madame Vivienne just HAD to get a dig in with her use of the word "conservative"....didn't she!

Conservative women are smart dressers. If you've ever paid attention how liberal women in your neighborhood dress (or at a street freep) there's no comparison.

Moochelle doesn't know if she wants to dress liberal, ghetto or royal......however, does anyone really notice or care what she wears anymore?
