Shelley O + DVF

U.S. first lady Michelle Obama speaks on health care legislation at the White House complex in Washington, DC.

If you've paid any attention at all, then you know that as her Secretaries of Taste, we would not put our seal of approval on this look.

Model: Denisa Dvorakova




We just don't think she looks her best in the layered separates area and of course, we're sick to death of the underboob belts.




But she's wearing DVF and the colors look good on her so this one's a pass. It's not a silhouette we like, but at least it's all well put together.

Diane Von Furstenberg Spring 2010

DVF disappoints us, kittens.

Style.com fills in the details:

"This season's nomad searcher is "looking into antiquity for effortless beauty," with Egypt and the desert on her horizon, along with a side visit to the Pre-Raphaelites. Saucy tiger-print safari suits and leopard-spot shirtdresses mingled with floral-appliqué chiffon and a daisy-chain maxi dress, while brightly colored macramé hippie frocks mixed with more urbane jersey numbers."

To be honest, we think this one's kind of a yawn. Oh sure, there are individual pieces that bring the pretty and as always, she has a great eye for prints, but as a whole, we've seen more exciting collections from her in the past. DVF always distinguished herself by being one of those designers who really has her finger on the pulse of the consumer. To that end, it's a very wearable collection. Very "real woman." It's just not that exciting to us. The best we could muster was the occasional "That's pretty."
