Sophistication, is an understatement when referring to the new first family of the the United States of America. However, when it comes to this stylish family, they have been criticized in the eyes of critics who obviously have no sense of style or sophistication when it comes to fashion.
Some black fashion critics and organizations such as the BAA argue that Michelle Obama should have worn the designs of African American designers to the inauguration. Well frankly I feel that is just a matter of choice and personal sophistication. Michelle Obama is a very stylish person and I just love the two first daughters and their style as well as barack Obama's swagg.
This family is very influential in the world today and the Obama's are often compared to the Kennedy's and this is a very close comparison in deed. The Obama's will be on the the trend setters for years to come because we have never seen a family that is African American in this position of leadership in this country.
Recent talk about Michelle Obama's choice of Isabel Toledo for the the inauguration dress, and Jason Wu for the Evening gown is creating tension with the first lady and the BAA.
The BAA ( The Black Artist Association) is asking why didn't Michelle Obama Choose an African American Designer? In my opinion Michelle Obama has her own taste and style, so why shouldn't she be able to have the freedom to choose what she wants to wear?
Personally Michele Obama is very tasteful and sophisticated and she shouldn't be under fire by the BAA for not choosing. A black designer, but the Obama's are a very influential family, and constantly in the medias eye. Being the trend setter that she is ... Maybe she is just trying to choose the right designer for the occasion that expresses her sense of style.
