Michelle's Dress - Not flattering (color, fashion, look, shoulders)

[sky1949]

Michelle Obama is a good looking woman. Her dress for the 2d Inaugural Balls makes her look like real wide load. Disappointed.

I thought she looked pretty. They make a good looking couple. I enjoyed watching the dance.

Good looking is a stretch. Average looking at best.

All I can say is she looks like she belong in The Beatles with that horrid hairstyle. BO should render an executive order against that look.

She looked fine. You can tell by her large frame that she is not meant to be a size 5.

It was a gorgeous dress, and it looked great on her.

I thought she looked beautiful in this dress.

Why do women look up to her as some kind of big boned fashion goddess?

Oh well, I'll give a thumbs up on the hair, as long as we're grading that also.

She has great shoulders and arms, and I like that she showed them off with the dress (fantastic color on her), but some other type of style would have been more flattering for the rest of her body.

Dunno cuz she's thin. She has hips and a rear and she's tall. She's just not a double zero like models. I love DVF wrap dresses and this is one of my favorites that she wore last year:

This is not a large woman by any means. I think she likes dresses that are fitted on top and fan out or flow from the waist which unfortunately make her look bigger than she is in photos.
