Donatella V. says something I agree with?

Amazing!In discussing Hilary Clinton's wardrobe (at the White House Correspondent's Dinner last Saturday night), she says something I've been thinking ever since Hilary denied Queen A. Wintour's offer for a Vogue cover:
“Hilary should wear Versace–a dress, not trousers. She doesn’t need to wear trousers to show she’s strong.”
Which is quite similar to Anna's thoughts on the matter:
