Sarah Palin is not the only politician setting fashion trends. After having his face on the Andrew Christian Obama ‘08 boxer briefs, Barack Obama made a splashy debut on the Paris runways in the Jean-Charles de Castelbajac show.
Obama was prominently featured on a sporty yellow sequin dress in the Jean-Charles de Castelbajac runway. The look was completed with a matching glove that said YES.
Besides the Obama piece, the vibrant collection featured LEGO-inspired pieces, lots of clouds and kisses.
It truly seems that if the world could vote, Obama would indeed be president.
