Dress Of Party: Coats Were Caped With Three-Quarter-Length Sleeves And Oversized Round Buttons

They seemed to lighten up a little after that.

Being a size 16/18 does not help.

You are an inspiration and a true beauty. Wow, just wanted to say that you are amazing. Certainly, I think I am your size and it feels like I astroprojected and kind of tried those dresses on… I am going nuts doing best in order to pick out a dress. Thank you for sharing very much! Less so than a fit and flare, It’s more form fitting than a ‘A line’. On the scale of poofy skirt to ‘formfitting’ skirt dress silhouettes go. It flares at the hips. I believe it’s a trumpet style. On p of that, oh, and I guess sheath is thrown in there somewhere, should wear clothes at a price point that is accessible to most Americans.

There’re many big names, however, who are not so keen to be considered, including Marc Jacobs, who is no fan of Trump’s husband. As long as they are not made in the United States but in ­Italy, m Ford has also said she shouldn’t choose his collections. With pearl stud earrings and a ’12 carat’ emerald cut diamond ring on her wedding finger. And so it’s believed most outfits for major events are either donated or borrowed, the White House remains stubbornly tight lipped about how the first lady’s vast wardrobe is obtained. Another dissenting voice is ­Sophie Theallet, whose ­independent label has dressed Michelle Obama since President Obama entered office in 2009. She is unafraid of bold shades, and her signature style comprises botanical prints and playful patterns on ‘knee length’ skater dresses that show off her famously ned arms. Whenever by all means not confined to a specific cut, colour or creative director, her style is eclectic, youthful and fun. Obama is at her most commanding when wearing evening gowns by Naeem Khan, who is also a favourite of Queen Noor of Jordan. ‘Indian American’ designer sent camera bulbs flashing last September when he dressed the first lady in a grey tulle ball gown ‘handpainted’ with gold leaf for a state occasion. I know that the ‘first lady in waiting”s ensemble for the Inaugural Ball could be in a shade of light red, almost white or dark blue, ­reflecting the American flag, I’d say if history is anything to go by.

In her ‘Onassis years’, she increasingly wore Valentino and Carolina Herrera and styled her looks -as she had throughout the years -with bug eye sunglasses and ‘triplestrand’ pearls.

Designers from the Middle East have rarely featured in the ­wardrobe of previous first ladies.

Fashion is boundless and it shouldn’t have political affiliations, nor must it discriminate, says Dubai based couturier to the rich and famous, Michael Cinco. She was once a fan of brassier colours, shinysheer ­fabrics and revealing dresses adorned with glinting beads. Hemlines have come down and necklines gone up in what some might call a clear case of dressing for the job you need. Her style archives tell alternative tale, while Trump appears to have the makings of a model first lady of fashion. Of course melania Trump ain’t one for busy patterns or conversational prints, instead preferring block colours, ne on ne layering and an awful lot of classic grey and cream. Also, with her bags of choice including Bottega Veneta clutches and Chanel’s quilted 55 design, her styling is flawless and carefully considered.

Clean lines and pastel colours epitomised the wardrobe of Jacqueline Kennedy during President John F Kennedy’s tenure in the White House, from January 20, 1961 to November 22, For her husband’s Inauguration Ball, the first lady wore an off almost white silk chiffon gown with matching cape, designed in collaboration with Bergdorf Goodman’s Ethan Frankau. In keeping with tradition, a American designer will almost certainly dress Trump, and Zac Posen is a ‘frontrunner’. In exchange for a first lady wearing their pieces, designers will receive worldwide media coverage rather than the hundreds of thousands of dirhams the couture itself might cost. No clutch bags, shawls or headpieces for this first lady -statement earrings and strings of pearls do the trick. Other couture creations Obama has pulled off with aplomb over the past eight years include designs by Oscar de la Renta, Narciso Rodriguez and the house of ­Alexander McQueen. That’s where it starts getting very serious, right? The two dresses she wore to her husband’s inaugurations were made by Jason Wu, and for her final White House State Dinner, at which Italy was the country of honour, Atelier Versace draped her in a ‘rosegold’ ‘chain mail’ gown.

From the moment she fully emerged into the public eye at her husband’s inauguration on January 20, 2009, incumbent first lady Michelle Obama has not stopped making fashion headlines.

Credited with helping to craft the Jackie look was Hollywood ‘costumer turned couturier’ Oleg Cassini.

Coats were caped with ‘three quarter length’ sleeves and oversized round buttons. She flitted effortlessly between the Capripant chic of Cape Cod and the high-­society glamour she oozed on her wedding day in a romantic, hourglass gown by Ann Lowe. With all that said… Much copied outfit he designed was Kennedy’s apricot silk zibelline dress, accented at the waist with a bow, for a trip to India in 1962. Remaining true to the aesthetics of the 1960s, ­Kennedy’s dresses were commonly boxy, Aline or kneelength swing shifts. Fashion arbiters the world over might be scrutinising the outfit Melania Trump wears on Friday, January 20 at the inauguration of her husband, US ‘presidentelect’ Donald Trump.
