Oscar De La Renta Chooses Usha Vance Over Meghan Markle – Here’s Why
It’s becoming crystal clear where Oscar de la Renta’s loyalty lies, and it’s not with Meghan Markle. Instead, the renowned fashion house has lavished praise on Usha Vance, the newly appointed second lady of the United States.
Usha Vance recently attended several high-profile inaugural events, absolutely slaying every outfit she wore—from a noir velvet gown with asymmetric floral accents to a chic cashmere coat. At the Vice President's dinner, her custom Oscar de la Renta gown, featuring a sweetheart neckline and delicate detailing, was a stunning example of elegance and sophistication.
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle was spotted at the Paly Gala in December wearing a dress that seemed to closely resemble Usha’s—strapless, check; sweetheart neckline, check; black with a slit, double check. However, Meghan’s moment failed to impress, turning what could have been a stunning look into something ill-fitted and awkward.
Let’s break it down:
- Usha’s gown was impeccably tailored, fitting her like a glove.
- Meghan’s dress, on the other hand, seemed to drag along the ground like it was borrowed last minute from someone much taller.
While Usha’s slit was subtle and classy, Meghan’s slit screamed “look at my leg” in a way that felt forced. And don’t even get me started on posture—Usha carries herself with the poise of a true second lady, radiating confidence and grace. She knows how to work a gown without overdoing it. Meghan, however, seemed to lead with her pelvis in an awkward and desperate attempt at attention. Her dress train dragging through what appeared to be a back alley? Yikes. It gave off “try hard” energy when the goal should have been effortless grace.
As for the shoes, Meghan’s sandals did her no favors. Her toes were squished out in an uncomfortable way, while Usha’s style exuded refined elegance.
Usha, clearly, understands that elegance is about more than just the gown—it’s about the whole package. Every inch of her custom dress was designed to complement her figure and stature, while Meghan’s dress looked like it had a run-in with a sewing machine and lost. Seriously, Meghan, hem your clothes.
Let’s put politics aside for a moment—this is strictly about fashion. And in terms of fashion, Usha wins by a landslide. Her look had depth—both literally and figuratively. The richness of the black velvet, the asymmetric floral accents, and the heroically cut neckline created a masterclass in understated glamour.
Meghan’s look, on the other hand, felt basic—borderline generic. It was the kind of dress that tries to look expensive but ends up looking like a knockoff.
The internet isn’t being kind to Meghan either. People are comparing her to Usha, and let’s just say the results aren’t flattering. While Usha is being celebrated as a beacon of elegance and a graceful representative of Indian-American culture, Meghan is being criticized for her sloppy hemlines, awkward gait, and that infamous leg pose.
There’s something refreshing about seeing Usha take the spotlight. She doesn’t need to try too hard or put on an act—she’s authentic, stylish, and effortlessly commands attention. Meghan, on the other hand, seems to be playing dress-up in someone else’s wardrobe, trying to force a narrative that just isn’t sticking.
So there you have it—Oscar de la Renta has made their choice, and it’s clear why Usha Vance is the epitome of grace and style. As for Meghan Markle? Well, it might be time to rethink the T-Rex walk and invest in a good tailor. Until then, we’ll be over here applauding Usha and wondering if Meghan ever plans to hem her dresses.
