[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omg both of her black outfits are fine this thread isn’t fun any more. Usha Vance is boring and more or less appropriate. There’s no story there. [/quote] No. The pleather skirt and heels are not appropriate and I have done plenty of stints defending Usha Vance. She’s not an idiot. She understood serious apparel interviewing for firms and going to events when Chua and the other mofos were helping launch her turd of a husband. Appropriate dress is in fact a serious part of the VP and spouse job. They do attend so many funerals and make so many appearances with the stated goal of acknowledging tragedy and offering support. It’s an a—-ole move to just fling on anything, [b]especially when it’s not just some cheap drab mourning drag from JC Penney.[/b] There is intent there and it’s hard to not read it as an eff-you from her to people that don’t deserve that callousness.[/quote] So, a couple things. Regarding the part of your post I bolded: That's what's crazy. No idea where the black caplet dress she wore when JD escorted Erika Kirk back to DC was from. But the pleather number to Minnesota was NOT cheap crap from Penney's. It was Shoshanna! Now, I went to go look on the Shoshanna website to get the exact cost but it looks past season. There's a similar version in navy retailing for about $500. In googling "Usha Vance Shoshanna dress" I found this article: [url]https://wwd.com/fashion-news/fashion-scoops/usha-vance-stylist-kennedy-center-shoshanna-new-york-1237915979/[/url] ...Usha [i]HAS[/i] a stylist which is truly the most "WTF" thing I have read in a long time.[/quote] My previous post on this topic eventually got deleted in the cleanup from the deranged "Usha is bad because Trump is racist" poster, but hopefully we can keep this one fashion-focused. I agree with PP that Usha is not stupid. And given her background and pedigree, she is well-versed in social protocol enough to know that SLOTUS should run a comb through her hair before public appearances. But I think there's an alternative explanation to thinking that everything she does style-wise is a giant FU to the American people. She is a victim of really awful racist attacks. Whatever else you might think about her, she's a mom and a person. That's hard and scary when you have 3 young kids. She might honestly have some social anxiety about public appearances, so she might be more focused on pysching herself up to attend than on getting her styling right. If she does indeed have a stylist, that seems even more likely. Maybe that means she shouldn't be SLOTUS, but not every outfit is necessarily a coded message. And she seems by far the least likely person in Trump world to be using her fashion to speak in code.[/quote]
