Nothing says “I’m out of here” in a more decisive way than a swift swish of a full-length golden chainmail gown. Really – try it. Even more so when said gown is Atelier Versace, and you are not mere mortal human but Michelle Obama, First Lady of the United States and general all-round goddess, and you are not, in fact, storming out of any old function, but actually your final state dinner, hosting the Italian Prime Minister in The White House. Not that she actually stormed out, of course, Mobama is far too elegant and poised for that. No, instead, she just schooled us with a lesson in opulent goddess realness. Like she’d been dunked in a large vat of gold and only dates men worth over a 20 million dollars. Ms Donatella, creator of extraordinary gown, offered her thoughts via social media this morning, writing: “I am humbled and honored to have had the opportunity to dress the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama. Thank you, Michelle, for all the things you have done for America and for the world, and especially, for empowering and inspiring women everywhere.” Here here. And, after that impeccable serving of face on the cover of T Magazine earlier this week, I am, to put it mildly, wildly obsessed with the exiting First Lady. Can we just say fuck the election now and crown Mobama and her exquisitely formed upper arms Madame President? Please?
