Hillary Clinton, style icon?

The unexpected inspiration...

But in a non-partisan way, Clinton’s proximity to the presidency has invited designers to reconsider the relationship that women have to power and how it manifests in attire and style. Designers have responded in ways that have been inventive, charming and reassuring. They have refused to be caught up in all the old clichés of polished jackets and below-the-knee skirts. And they are thinking more broadly than just another sleeveless sheath. Even Victoria Beckham, who founded her brand on a fitted sleeveless dress, has expanded her collection to reflect a woman more at ease with her position and authority.

The conversation about strength takes place not only around the aesthetics of the clothes but in the way they are presented. Yes, lots of fashion houses are shifting gears and offering fall clothes that shoppers can buy right now. Ralph Lauren, the last of a generation of designers who is still plugging away at the household-name, mega-company he founded, upended his production schedule and created a whole new fall collection — in addition to the one that he’d already shown on the runway back in February. He shut down a block of Madison Avenue, put up a tent in front of his store and after the presentation, invited guests to come in and shop for the Western-inspired finery they had just seen.


OK, then... :lol2:

I'd rather listen to an hour of Abba than an hour of The Beatles.
