Barack Obama Adorns Runway Fashion


Barack Obama has already had an influence on fashion and while some have used his sartorial style or his image as a touchstone perhaps none have done so as flamboyantly as Jean Charles de Castelbajac. The showpiece of his most recent runway show was a bright yellow dress that features a sequinned image of Obama.

In The Telgegraph de Castelbajac calls Obama, the most charismatic leader in politics today.
