Michelle Obama
Whether working a campaign event or working out with her trainer, Michelle Obama always looks the part. And she’s not shy about showing off those sculpted 1 arms, either.

米歇尔·奥巴马
不管是参加竞选活动，还是与健身教练一起健身，米歇尔·奥巴马总是穿着得体。她也不会不好意思露出自己粗壮的胳膊。米歇尔在竞选过程中穿着无袖连衣裙，看起来既时髦又酷。由于米歇尔身高5 英尺11 英寸( 约1.8 米)，所以她不穿4 英寸细高跟鞋，而是穿漂亮舒适的芭蕾平底鞋。

Hillary Clinton
Hillary’s hair appears to have gone through more transformations 6 than Madonna. As she famously told graduating seniors at Yale University, “hair matters. Your hair will send significant messages to those around you: what hopes and dreams you have for the world, but more, what hopes and dreams you have for your hair.” Her current style seems to suit her, because it’s short and no-nonsense. Her choice of clothes reflects a similar aesthetic 7.
希拉里·克林顿
希拉里的发型似乎比麦当娜还多变。正如她对耶鲁大学毕业生说过的一句名言：“发型非常重要。你的发型为你周围的人传达了重要信息：你对这个世界所怀有的希望和梦想，但更多的是传递了你对自己发型的希望和梦想。”希拉里现在的发型似乎很适合她，短发显得干练。她选择的服装也显示出类似的美感。

Signature Piece: Pantsuits.
How You Can Wear It: To pull off Hillary’s look, choose pantsuits that are simple but made of highquality fabrics 8 like silk or linen 9.
