Dear Fashion Police:
No, I do not think that Michele has the ability to look good in more or less everything she wears. I have yet to see her in anything flattering. Her choice for the evening: An abominable atrocity!

Hard for Michelle to look anything but beautiful. Still, her ‘swearing-in’ suit was much more interesting. I like a little color, ‘specially yellow.

gorgeous dress, but I feel like it makes her look frumpy. Probably could have chosen something more figure-flattering.

I think overall it is very lovely and regal, just perfect for Michelle!

Looking at the dress in this photo, it looks like a puff-ball covered bad prom dress.
My opinion changed though when I saw some of the CNN photos. It’s practically regal, and looks great on her.
Oh and the earrings are great too.

I really like the dress ,even if it lookks like a wedding dress to me. What I appreciate is the discret and classy dress. No show off or bling bling!

OK, folks: you’re welcome to exchange your views here (I’d prefer they remained on-topic, as this isn’t a political website, but I won’t insist on it as long as people remain courteous), but if you’re not able to do it without resorting to name-calling and personal attacks, the comments will be closed on this post and the people posting abuse will be banned.
I’ve already had to remove several comments from people who were more interested in attacking each other than engaging in debate, and if I have to remove any more, the comments close.
In short, opinions and debate = good, name calling and personal attacks = bad. I hope this is clear enough.

Tiffany, You are the one that said something about RACE, I am not so please lets be adult about this! As I recall most of the people only had bad things to say about Laura Bush because none of them can think on their own and have to listen to the media to get their opinions!
Bobbi, I am sorry if you are having a hard time getting a concept of what I am saying but what I meant by we will be paying for it one way or another is that by all of the taxes that Obama has already stated that he will be raising, that I will be “paying for it”!!!
Please lets be kind here and not speak so bad of George Bush because just as you said Obama was just sworn in yesterday and there is plenty of time for this president to make a mess! I do hope that does not happen!! Let’s get back onto the subject though, umm yeah nice dress!

I believe the precedent is to donate the dress to the Smithsonian. Anyways, I thought that while maybe the dress wasn’t as flattering as it could have been. she still looked beautiful and youthful.
