Kate Middleton<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As the royal wedding edges closer, a few of us in the Talent Management team<\/a> have been comparing Kate Middleton’s style to Michelle Obama’s \u2013 and we\u2019re not the only ones.<\/p>\n

American designer Michael Kors – who has seen his clothes on everyone from Jennifer Lopez to Michelle Obama – told Vogue UK that he believes Prince William\u2019s new fianc\u00e9e shares Obama\u2019s chic, effortless style.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen\u00a0Barack Obama first became well known and everyone started looking at\u00a0Mrs Obama I thought to myself ‘This is a very different, modern-looking couple.’<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I designed the outfit for the Michelle’s first official portrait no one thought she would wear matte jersey but she did. Past women in the same position had always worn a tailored suit.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I look at Kate I see a changing of the guard in what is considered elegant. She likes to look easy but chic. I would liken her to Obama and\u00a0Carla Bruni in that way. All these women are in situations where they shaking off the formal suits of their predecessors,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Kors went on to describe how he would design the future Princess\u2019 dress for the big day, should he be asked: \u201cIf I was asked I would take the dress out of the realm of a traditional princess bride. A fabulous matte jersey combined with beautiful embroidery would be nice. The best clothes are a frame for the woman wearing it. It would be cut very well in just the perfect fabric.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
