I see that Michelle Obama is supporting an organization to provide "interview clothing" for underserved women. Good for her, but I fear she's wasting her time. Nobody cares. Women wear what they want. Maybe her efforts would be better directed toward men.
Case in point: During the NYS daily Press Briefings, which typically include three men and one woman. This is my perception, not duly noted every day. The men wear the standard shirt, tie, suitcoat during the weekdays, and maybe open collars or more informal on weekends or holidays. The woman present, Secretary to the Governor, seems to be most often clad in a sleeveless camisole or shell top. She is attractive, intelligent, well-spoken, and capable. Her clothing is not provocative or sexually exploitative, but as far as what would be deemed appropriate for professional wear, it would seem not. The men could wear t-shirts or sweatshirts for their formal appearances, but they don't. What is different about women? I mean, we already know that women television anchors choose to display a lot of leg during their newscasts or interviews. What motivates them I certainly do not know, and care even less about them, on any personal level.
The NYS Secretary seems too young to be experiencing hot flashes, but when the men are clad in jackets, she appears in what could be a slip or cami.
