The centerpiece of the flurry of activity in the White House drama is not Kevin Spacey, although he is the star. No, the eye of the hurricane is Claire Underwood (Robin Wright) - political wife and ice queen power diva; she slays as she walks in the room.
Has a character ever rocked such a modern, austere, chic, minimalist wardrobe in a TV series like her? She has a mood for every one of her neutral showpieces.
Sky blue Oxford button-up shirt and tortoise shell glasses - Smart, concerned, flicking through endless reams of reports while plotting another lawsuit against her enemies.
Black, draped-sleeve and cinched-belt dress + black leather handbag - A mysterious Claire, coyly looking around the corner to see if the paps are ready to snap pics of her dealing with that pesky art photographer she romps with (on and off).
A bone- (or is it eggshell-) colored tube dress - A press conference for another scandal? She was asked to change into something more...conservative. So naturally...sleeveless and skin tight. It screams 'respectability' and 'poise,' doesn't it? They will wish they never crossed Claire Underwood.
Death by 'ecru.'
