What Not to Wear to an Inaugural Ceremony


Yes, I dare to differ in my opinion regarding Michelle Obama’s dress choice for today’s Presidential Inauguration ceremony. While a majority of the population was in awe of Mrs. Obama's gold sheath dress and coat, I was not.

First, not only did the color not photograph well but it wasn’t the optimal skin tone enhancer either. Secondly, the fit was off and as a result gave her a boxy looking silhouette. Lastly, the heavy lace brocade fabric on both the coat and sheath aged her a bit. Perhaps the outfit would have worked better if she opted to break up the two pieces and pair the dress with a solid darker color coat in a different textured fabric.
