Throughout the years, Michelle Obama has become a style icon.
Her stylist, Meredith Koop, has helped Obama become the noted fashion icon she is today.
Koop and Black professionals weighed in on the lasting impact of Obama s style and what it says about power dressing.
Daniella Carter said if she s learned one thing from Michelle Obama s style, it s what an unapologetic Black successful woman looks like even when there are people in the world spewing hate.
Carter is a Black trans activist and founder of the eponymous Guest Book which highlights creators of color.
She grew up in foster care but said seeing Obama suited-and-booted made her always remember that though she may not have had a mother who looked like her, she would learn to carry herself so that she and her future daughter could both grow up to be unapologetic Black, successful women.
