With her pink jacket and strands of pearls, Hillary Clinton looked both elegant and professional when she visited the Norwegian Embassy today.
And while fashion was likely the last thing on her mind, her choice of outfit could not have been more well-timed given that she was the subject of cutting criticism from Project Runway judge Tim Gunn last night.
In an interview with George Lopez, the fashion expert, 57, accused Mrs Clinton of favouring unflattering mannish clothes, and that she should use her position to send a more positive message about American fashion.
He said: 'She's the Secretary of State, she's a former senator from New York, she's a former first lady. Why must she dress that way?
'I think she's confused about her gender. All these big, baggy menswear tailored pantsuits? I'm really serious.'
The audience was shocked further when Mr Lopez delivered an insult to Mrs Clinton's appearance, asking his guest: 'But how can someone hide cankles?'
