Simon Doonan Laments MObama’s Junya Watanabe Cardigan

Simon Doonan: "Michelle Obama, instead of wearing grown-up sensible clothing by Ralph Lauren and Donna Karan — and thereby supporting the seasoned juggernauts and biggest employers of the American clothing business — has gone all niche and fashion insider.
