Clinton Gave Speech on Income Inequality Wearing a $12,495 Dollar Armani Jacket

Hillary Clinton’s New York primary victory speech in April focused on topics including income inequality, job creation and helping people secure their retirement. It was a clear attempt to position herself as an everywoman.

But an everywoman she is not — she gave the speech in a $12,495 Giorgio Armani tweed jacket.
The polished outfit was a stark contrast to the fashion choices Clinton has made in the past. As first lady, Clinton wore frumpy pastel skirtsuits. As New York senator and secretary of state, she attempted a more serious look, wearing pantsuits in a rainbow of colors — so mocked that they sparked memes. In comparison to Michelle Obama, who’s become known as a style icon during her time in the White House and appeared on the cover of Vogue twice, Clinton has never been able to nail down a personal aesthetic that works for her.

But now, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, whose dowdy and matronly style has haunted her throughout her entire political career, is making her first real effort to play the fashion card. She’s upgraded the designers she wears, opting for high-end European labels, and hired a team of image experts that includes former Michelle Obama aide Kristina Schake, who’s been tasked with shaping her style and making her more relatable. She’s even rumored to have “Veep” makeup artist Barbara Lacy on the payroll.

  1. I’m not a fashion expert. But doesn’t that jacket look a lot like the Mao’s communist attire from the 60s?

    1. It's amazing that fools pay this for a piece of cloth, which by the way, looks so bad that Walmart wouldn't carry it. :)

  4. She would look best in an orange jumpsuit.

    1. Would look better than the sack she is wearing. I can't believe she looked herself in the mirror after donning and didn't return it.

  5. Ya'll can put lipstick on a pig, outfit every teat set with a Victoria's Secret fancy muffin girdles and sexy peek a boo undies, and whatever butt crappy European designer rags, but it still is a swine, and an fug ugly one at that...

  6. To believe any thing that evil vermin says, one needs to have a room temp IQ, and or a willingness to ignore reality and her long sordid history of criminal misconduct. Yet the masses of low information voters and the useful idiots will vote for her because it is the current year and time that we elect a woman for president. Same "logic" that got Antichrist Obama elected twice.
    Thought here, should she be appointed...er...elected President, perhaps she is Devine punishment for our nations collective sins against The Holy Almighty. Lest I get depressed and despair; time to re-read the Old Testament book of Habakkuk.
