Wow. That's a beautiful dress! I love it! And it looks wonderful on her.

I don't like the pink trim on the dress. Would never buy a dress like that but the fabric is pretty and would make a nice scarf or wrap.

A lovely dress for a lovely woman.

Speaking strictly from a sartorial standpoint, I wish the dress had either been shorter or longer. Proportionally, the design seems off and doesn't flatter her shape.
Agree, the pattern and color are great. The shape is weird.

I love the dress, and the message. And I sure wish I looked half as good as the wearer!

I'm not crazy about the layer at the waist, but other than that, I can't think of a negative thing to say about it.

I like the dress especially because it is different.

I don't like it. It would look better with that tutu-looking thing around the hips.

And yet, she works in a place where many people work full time for part time wages and have no benefits, and she did nothing to support her colleagues in her very own field. Instead, she bartered her husband's fame to leave the ranks of adjuncts for an absurdly well-paid, full-time position. What kind of person does not speak up in defense of their own field, under the justification that her work life is separate from her husband's political life, but at the same time only has the job she has because of her husband? Not someone I'm going to praise for wearing a pretty dress, that's for sure.
