Saying that something that ugly is unflattering is NOT being catty!

It brings to mind a botched abortion. Sorry, but it does. Ghastly in extremis.

Notice how many compliments I gave the woman before I trashed the dress?

Why don’t you accept it as a review by an experts – in something you have no idea nor desire to be knowledgeable in?

Coincidentally, they have each turned down-right catty toward the First Lady’s attire during inauguration events.

Is this part of the “Change” we have been waiting for? Or is it just natural feminine reaction asserting itself?

Look, I’m someone who spends 80% of the time in jeans and a T-shirt, with hair in an unflattering ponytail. I can’t even put on makeup properly, most of the time.

Even I can tell the “I’m 18 in the 80s and at the prom” dress is bad.

She is NOT an unattractive woman– why is she wearing something so ugly?

Just take what you are thinking of wearing, put it on, and ask your kids what they think. You’ll look pretty good most of the time.
