It looks like Carla Bruni, is taking a page out of Michelle Obama's style book and giving democratic fashion a chance -- um, as well as children's fashion.
As first reported by The Huffington Post, the typically Dior-clad French First Lady/model/singer performed "And I Love Her" alongside Harry Connick Jr. on "Le Grand Journal" wearing a T-shirt, jeans and shrunken band jacket from the Stella McCartney for GapKids line.
So, Bruni sang a Beatles song, wearing a Beatles-inspired jacket, designed by a Beatle's daughter -- we love it!
When StyleList chatted with McCartney at the launch of her Gap collection last month, the designer actually confided that she's been eyeing the fashionable "Miller" jacket -- named after her son and the most expensive piece in the collection, at $128 -- for herself.
"The military jacket is sort of the star of the show," she said. "If you take it up to the larger sizes, I think we can squeeze into it. I know I'm going to."
Perhaps the reason the Sgt. Pepper-themed jacket (which was also favored by Michael Jackson) is unavailable on Gap.com is because adults (like these editors at Grazia UK) have co-opted the best pieces of the GapKids collection for themselves, à la Bruni.
Here's a look at the Stella McCartney for GapKids collection and the jacket Bruni wore, below.

A plaid shirt ($38) is an up-to-date way to keep warm. Paired here with a raglan tee in fossil blue ($28), knitted leggings in heather grey ($78), cable hat in charcoal heather ($28) and hi top sneakers ($48).
The yellow hooded fisherman's mac ($48) reflects the rough and ready spirit of this collection. Worn here with a slouchy hat in charcoal blue ($28) and duckboots in ashphalt ($58).
| In any case, we want to know what you think of Bruni's fashion choice: yay or nay? Have you or would you rock clothes from the kids' department? Leave a comment! |
This grey cardigan ($58) worn with grey knitted leggings ($78) looks both smart and snuggly.
Stella McCartney pairs oversized items like this long hoodie in heather grey ($88) with girly bits like a tulle skirt in silver coin ($88).
