On The Catwalk - Obama Style

The latest “first” for Barack Obama comes off the Milan runway. Calling the U.S. presidential hopeful "the man of the moment," Donatella Versace dedicated her Spring-Summer 2009 collection presented Saturday evening to Obama, creating a style she said was designed for "a relaxed man who doesn't need to flex muscles to show he has power."

Chatting with reporters in the cool of the garden of her private palazzo in downtown Milan at an after-show dinner party, the designer also had some fashion tips for the campaign trail. "I would get rid of the tie and jazz up the shirt," she said.

Well, I am trying to think back a few years as to which leader has been “flexing muscles to show he has power.”  Reagan?  No.  Bush 41?  No.  Clinton?  No. 

Bush 43?  Let me think….Uh, huh.  No.

No….None of those leaders really had any six pack abs to flaunt that I recall.  No great biceps either.  Nope. 

Still, it could be a comment about Bush 43.  It could be a comment about mental muscle.  If that comment is directed at Bush….it should be taken as a compliment.  And it will make me feel that much more secure to know if Barack Obama ends up in the White House, at least he will be dressing well when he can’t make tough decisions.
