No threads about Rama Duwaji aesthetic and fashion?

[Anonymous]

She is 28! I hope she got a call from Michelle like Zohran did from Barack. Sheesh you all are so mean. YOU LOOK AMAZING Rama! Be strong and ignore all these haters.

This is a pretty typical downtown NYC artsy look. Works for her, she is a young illustrator and don't think typical sheath dresses and pumps would really work in her circle!

She's in her late 20s?!?!?! Yikes, she looks to be in her 40s.

How old are you and where's your Marie Claire article, PP?

I’d like to see critical PPs post photos of political wives they consider attractive. That’ll be worth a good laugh.

It would be a waste of time because political wives aren't fashion icons. They are supposed to not bring attention to themselves and blend in to the background nicely. Isn't that what Michelle O said? She wasn't able to fully express herself with fashion. Who wants to emulate women who are repressed in their style as subservient wives?

Also, she does kind of look like Audrey Hepburn if Audrey Hepburn was Syrian - the hair, eyes, etc... not the style.

tl;dr - If you're weirded out by her, you're no longer "with the times." It happens.

This is hilarious. This is exactly what these young adults think other people think about their basic and utterly predictable "edgy vibe" look. They think they are unique yet they somehow manage to all look the same. Nobody is put off by it or weirded out, they've seen it a hundred times before.

PP didn't say that it was a "unique" look...she said it is on-trend for younger women in NYC. You can like the trend or not, but she pulls it off well IMHO. And it is an unusual look for a political wife.

Pulls it off like it’s a stylistic feat? It’s practically a uniform.

I thought her election night outfit was a nice balance between personalized (the designer, the denim) and classic (black and fairly conservative). You had to look for all the edgy details. I personally just enjoy that kind of fashion dissection.

This is the best image I could find. Are there better ones?

My god, that cheesy grin/wrinkled nose thing he does is just awful. Literally makes my skin crawl. And she just looks odd and goth.

She looks goth? Lololol

Who CARES what she wears? Or U Vance, or M Slovenian, or whomever?

+1 Wearing black doesn't make you goth. Try going to NYC or Paris and learning about what people actually wear there--particularly the artsy set.

Damn. Usha’s friends are working overtime in this thread.

Do we care? Even a tiny bit? Nope.

You don’t even have standing to post about her. Go back to posting your shitty shoe recommendations and wringing your hand about a twenty something being “goth” because she wears black. No one looks to you for style.

Which borough do you live in, again?

NYC really is that girl. The country’s podunk chunks can’t get enough of staring at what they could never be and pissing and moaning, well into middle age.

So's a suit, yet countless women in DC manage to bungle it.

Right, because Michelle Obama’s actual style is so covetable!

No one suggested sheath dresses and pumps.
