Even if Michelle Obama wasn’t that confident with her looks, she had graced various covers of fashion magazines. In March 2009, she was on Vogue’s magazine cover. “She doesn’t need any help. She loves fashion and knows what works for her. She’s never had a conversation with me about, ‘What do you think?’ or ‘How did this look?’ And I’m glad for that,” Vogue’s editor-at-large Andre Leon Talley said of Obama, who reportedly selected the outfits she wore for the photo shoot, Fashion Network reported. Obama admitted that she loved clothes and that her priority was comfort and fun instead of following the trend. “First and foremost, I wear what I love. That’s what women have to focus on: what makes them happy and what makes them feel comfortable and beautiful. If I can have any impact, I want women to feel good about themselves and have fun with fashion,” she said.
