Malia and Sasha Obama influencing Children's fashion

Malia and Sasha Obama, similar to their mother are also stirring up something for the fashion industry. When it comes to their dress choices during election night, or just a day at school, the media and the fashion industry praises the simplicity of these girls. Designers describe their style to be approachable and something other little girls can look up to.

One of the beneficial aspects that fashion designers are looking for is how young the girls are, while their father is entering the office. It gives designers and the world the opportunity to watch these girls develop their own styles, and become their own individual. And with this occuring, it will possibly strike fashion trends for the younger generations as they follow their development into their teen years.

During election night, Sasha chose a $75 Iris and Ivy dress, while Malia chose a $110 Biscotti dress. Nordstrom in Chicago, where the girls bought their dresses completely sold out of these dresses, and customers are still asking for more.

As someone interested in fashion, it is quite interesting to actually witness the first family be influential in things other than just the presidency and politics. Similar to the life of Jackie Kennedy who marked something special in fashion, the Obama women are definitely doing just that. It will definitely be worthwhile to see what will stir up in fashion due to the influence of these girls.
