Hillary Clinton, the former First Lady (as wife of the 42nd President of the United States); the former Secretary of State, and now the Democratic nominee for President, has been through a number of style changes since she moved out of the White House in 2001.
Jan and Cyndy, recognise the irony of commenting on the clothes and hairstyles of the person who, with a fair wind and a following sea, could be the most powerful person on the planet by next January, but – hey – this is a fashion website, so that’s what they do!
The prodigiously clever, Mrs Clinton appears to be one of those women who have grown happier with themselves with age… At SoSensational, we like her with shorter, blonder hair and think that the current hair-cut suits her well and is feminine and flattering yet does not detract in any way from her authority.
As SoSensational observed in July, when Theresa May became the UK’s second-ever female PM, it is very tempting for a female politician to adopt the traditional “uniform” of black tailored suits and low-heeled court shoes; indeed Mrs Clinton seems to have gone down that route during her time as Secretary of State – though her tailored suits were rarely black.
But having experimented with rather stiff tailoring, she now seems to have settled on a style of dressing that conveys authority but is a bit less stiff and less like a male-clone. In our view, her current style suits her shape and her colouring – and it provides a brilliant template for any woman in a position of authority.
SoSensational cannot resist observing, too, that if Hillary Clinton wins in November, a Mrs Clinton presidency will be the first BOGOF (Buy One, Get One Free) Presidency in history; for surely, she will call on her husband Bill’s experience and political smarts to shore up her own skills.
Steal her style for business and work wear (or for your role in politics) by wearing solid colours for jackets and dresses (or for jackets and tops), accessorised with delicate necklaces set with semi-precious stones. Then just add a great haircut, a careful maquillage, a slick of bright lippy and a big smile.
