In all the people here , there is not an educated statement.To wear someone face on your outfit is normal in many part of Africa.It is used very common)for wedding,ceremonies,baby birth and even funerals.Fabric,(in contradiction to most views here in the state) are most of the time with message and sentences / meaning.It is just a statement of your attachement to either the job the individual is doing or himself.The same way many people carry pic of their family or friends on wallet, cars , wear some silly hat,shoes(in the name of fashion)It maybe strange for some cultures but it does not make it unfashionable.I love the fabric, I do not like the model with that specific fabric because fabrics like that are made to be used with imagination. She is also not supposed to put his face on the train but I guess she tried . YOu rock girl!!!! She kept simple and miss it.The fabric was used For Obama visit and victory in AFRICA .
People,I understand that she dressed differently from what you call fashion but for a lot of people out there,a little bit of studies will help!Too much ignorance !!!

the Emmys are for entertainment not for political agendas…..this approach was in poor taste..She could have gotten a lot more positive response doing a public service announcement

Its also Part of Tanzanian Culture. They are called Kanga or Vitenge. They have numerous symbolic meanings. If you look it Up you will also realize they are very Fashion Foward, in Parts of East Africa (especially Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda), as women and african designers make dresses out of them. Check out major African Designers. Like someone said she is shinning a light in an area where people look down on the simplest things as bing sub-par. Fashion is greatly used for political and social movements so why not now and when is there a better time. Look at the bigger picture.

I actually like it. It isn’t that bad. It is no worse than the Toni Braxton Campbell Soup Dress.
