The Revelation
Earlier this week at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference in California, the former First Lady, Michelle Obama spoke about the double standards that exist in men’s and women’s styles, and how she and Barack navigated those differences during their years in the White House.
“This is the thing,”
she said,
“You talk about Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. No matter what we do, he puts on that same tux. People take pictures of the shoes, the bracelet I’m wearing but they didn’t comment that for eight years he wore the same tux, same shoes.”
Obama, who used fashion more powerfully than any First Lady since Jackie Kennedy, added that her husband would tease her about how effortless his getting ready process, even for the most formal of state occasions, would be.
“He was proud of it too, he was like ‘I’m ready, ready in ten minutes, how long did it take you? ‘And I’m like ‘Get out of here.'”
During the same talk, Michelle also discussed how she subsisted with the somewhat bizarre moments of waiting for the guests outside of the White House in front of the world’s press.
She recounted one occasion when she and the President were awaiting the arrival of the Chinese president and his wife.
“We’re standing there waiting for the cars to roll in,”
she said,
“I was bored, so I thought ‘let me make sure my husband looks good.'”
The images of that moment eventually became one of the many charming couple moments between the Obamas that went viral.

“In the beginning, designers used the phrase ‘first ladyish’ to describe a certain traditional look. We had to break that mold,”
Koop told Harper’s Bazaar last year.
“Highlighting designers from diverse backgrounds with varying levels of success and exposure became an important part of my role.”
Michelle Obama herself even commented on the importance of Koop’s position and work.
“I am so grateful for Meredith’s passion, dedication, and extraordinary talent. I am impressed by her professionalism, her attention to detail, and her ability to think not only about fashion but also the importance of the moment and the message.”
