The Barack Obama craze was not exempt from the runways as an Obama lookalike was sent down the Lanvin runway dressed in a black overcoat, white shirt and necktie - a hand dressed in black leather gloves raised as though greeting a crowd. The collection had less to do with Obama as it had to do with grunge. At the least, it was a nod of approval to the new American President and I give a nod to the slickly dressed collection despite its target - the most obnoxious, spoiled international rich boy.
