A fancy for sleeveless dresses, A-lined hems and pearls has garnered Michelle Obama, wife of Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama, flattering comparisons to Jackie O.
In the 1960s and for decades thereafter, legendary first lady Jackie O. had flocks of women following in her fashionable footsteps. The nation is still five months shy of the 2008 presidential election and already Michelle O. is being watched and mimicked similarly by women who adore her modern and elegant sense of style.
A surge in sales of the dress Michelle recently wore on ABC's The View has sent its manufacturer White House/Black Market back into production.
Jackie O., who was reportedly fond of retailer Gap, wasn't a designer-labels-only woman either. As a matter of fact, biographer Carl Sferrazza Anthony wrote that Jackie O. became "a symbol of the liberation from the notion that America had to be bourgeois."
What reinforces that statement more than the $148 off-the-rack number Michelle wore on The View?
Without a doubt, this fashion diva knows how to rock top designers too. At a fund-raiser in her honor last week, she wore a black front-wrapped jersey tunic and palazzo pants from Isabel Toledo accessorized with a fashion necklace from Tom Binns.
Even Michelle's knowledge of jewelry—what to wear and when—demonstrates her fashion sense is on point. Jackie O. wasn't seen wearing jewelry every day either. According to Shelley Branch and Sue Callaway’s book What Would Jackie Do?, the icon only wore jewelry when the occasion called for it.
