As it turns out WWD just released an article with details of a reception event held in honor of Mrs. Obama Tuesday night in NYC. Tickets to the cocktail reception at the Sikkema Jenkins & Co. Gallery cost $1,000 to $2,300, and all the fashion big wigs were in attendance, not just Andre Leon Tally, but Calvin Klein( with his daughter Marci who also held an after party dinner at his house that ticketed $10,000 per table), Anna Wintor, Catherine Malandrino and Tory Burch to name a few. Oh and Zac Posen was there in his Tee shirt supporting Barak Obama. It seems everyone was really excited to meet her. I think they all just want to be the ones to dress her if she become the next first lady.
Behnaz Sarafpour said “You just know that if she becomes first lady, she’d be the kind of first lady who would be into fashion and it would be really exciting to watch her and dress her.”
I think she’s such a confident woman she’ll look good in just about anything.
