The Political Face of Fashion

D.C. Style has uncovered Italian Gattinoni's latest collection, inspired somehow by Nancy Pelosi. (The mag-turned-blog pretends she has some style, but that's not a funny joke.) I recommend these as a conversation starter by talking about them, not wearing them, but to each their own.

Fashion has always been a little taboo in politics. Noting the Capitol Hill uniform of the sober power suit accented (only minimally) by a power tie, its clear that understated style is the norm in the world of political correctness. While some say that the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, is merely thinking outside the box with her colorful wardrobe choices, her so-called fashion statement falls short of select pieces from an Italian designer's spring/summer 2007 line.

Enter Gattinoni, who has taken Pelosi's idea and run with it. The Italian's current collection features pieces with some of the world's most influential women printed on them.

What's that, you don’t have a thing to wear to the Democratic or Republican debates? Try donning an elegant frock with Condoleezza Rice’s face on it. Fund-raising fete later in the week? Perhaps a color-block portrait of Hillary Clinton on your skirt is more your style.

If you're not well versed in all things political, jarringly pop-art piece of couture will serve as a conversation piece at least.
