The Mail's caption to the above photographs was Dressed to Impressed: Sarah Brown in her brown dress in New York (left) and then disembarking in Pittsburgh later yesterday evening.
If anyone knows the name of her fashion adviser could they please tell me. I'll circulate it round my friends just to ensure they give him/her a really wide berth.
Her companion's style is beyond criticism but then this post is about the power behind the suit.

We've been here before m'lady. The poor lass strikes me as the type who would be happy lounging about in jeans and tee shirts surrounded by manky kids.

You're right SR - 3 words sum her up: drab, drab & drab. And the hair? Oh, my dear! An orangey necklace would have lifted that horrible dress & highlighted the coppery tones in her rag-tag hair. She's actually not bad but seems v. uncomfortable in the limelight and needs dressing advice.
As for Brown - it looks like he's wearing a 3-buttoned suit in which case he's buttoned it up the wrong way.
I disagree Monty. Sarah Brown was in PR before she married him and therefore she was very comfortable with being in the public eye.
Perhaps she's too comfortable and forgotten she should look like a PM's wife rather than a 30 year old who buys at the sales and gets it wrong.
Why do men think she's uncomfortable in the public eye when her choice of job was exactly that before she married him?
I admit she dresses like someone who would rather not be seen but that doesn't mean to say she should dress badly.
I've seen pensioners on little income have a better dress sense than her. Most women with any sense of their body shape dress to fit it and use sensible materials. The above frock suited her body shape but she forgot to try it out. Hence the material wasn't suitable and was clingy.
Any woman with sense would have found that out before wearing it in public and have bought an underskirt which solved the problem.
I think she likes to be in the limelight - even for the wrong reasons.
I'm not impressed.
Might be just me though, fashion is subjective.
Just a frumpy old woman.
Sarah's a mess as well.
Off topic, but this is one IRRITATED American. Would you PLEASE take Glenn Campbell back and SHUT the man up. How skewed can a reporter's work get? He belongs at Pravda.
He is consistently misreporting and skewing American opinion. Notice reporting in a restaurant they cut out the owner's opinion PRO-MacAskill. When American express bafflement, he tries to turn it into hostility.
WORSE, he has consistently omitted parts of his interview with a representative of our State Department. What was REALLY said?
This:
The EXACT conversation was this:
QUESTION: Glenn Campbell from the BBC: Has the United States forgiven the Scottish Government for releasing the man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing?
MR. KELLY (US State Department spokesman): Well, our views on that issue, of course, are extremely well known. Again, we’ve passed these views both in private channels and in – also publicly. I think just about everything that we have said to the governments in London and Edinburgh through diplomatic channels have mirrored what we’ve said publicly. I don’t think it’s a matter of forgiving anybody. I think all along, we recognized that Mr. MacAskill had the right to do what he did. We objected extremely strenuously at many different levels and in many different channels to the release of Mr. Megrahi. I think at this point, we’re looking to move on.
NOT what Mr. Campbell and the BBC wanted to hear apparently from the way they consistently edit his comments to leave the part about "nothing to forgive" and "he had the right to do what he did..."
DISGUSTING. It belongs in Pravda. You PAY for this stuff, right? My sympathies.
Well, just to be controversial, I know, not like me - I'd wear that...
Jeanne, I'm pleased that someone said that about Campbell. His entire piece from New York was predicated on winding up the relatives of Lockerbie and inflaming anti-Scottish government passions. He is without doubt one of the most sleekit journalists we've ever had in Scotland.
Is she honestly married to Brown for any other reason than money and why is she wearing his dress?
I agree fashion is subjective QuietMan but with her money she can well afford better advice.
Oh Gigits, making me smile as ever!
Jeanne, I shall put your comment in a post in the morning. I think you'll receive some support in the comments. You definitely have some from me, the man is so anti-SNP and independence he oozes hatred for both.
And it may well suit you polaris.;)
Entirely agree Monty, think Jeanne's comment deserves a post of its own don't you?
Status too Lorenzo I should think or maybe she just enjoys knowing she would have a PR role when she married him.
I do usually hate when a woman is judged by the clothes she wears - but that dress is pretty nasty. It looks like a sack and clings in the wrong places. It also appears she's wearing no tights. Ick.
Bell, Sarah Brown has the fashion world at her beck and call and this is the best she can wear.
I wouldn't normally comment either on what a woman wears, but for someone in her position, who just loves the limelight, she is being given very bad advice.
The little black number for the conference 'entrance' was a far better choice.
She should be what people look at, not her clothes. When your clothes become a distraction then there's something wrong.
Looks like a case of static build up to me. She obviously forgot the dryer sheet.
Cats, the lot of you... I might dislike Broon and his union politics (and chums) but Mrs Broon is not a legitimate target of mine. The lass has had a hard time with family events and has stood it honourably. If you'd have seen Dram on top of Ben Wyvis on Saturday you might have been able to critisise the cut of my (years old) Gortex coat - sooo 1990's - as it clung to ma hurdies. As for ma hair - what's left of it - it was plastered neatly under a (high tech - winter weight) bunnet. Rrrgh (as the local cat might have put it) and me an independence man too.
Dram, Mrs Broon chooses to be in the public eye and that being the case then she's open to criticism.
If you'd seen me today doing my best to cut down overgrown shrubs then I was no oil painting, but I didn't ask the BBC or any media to photograph me.
Miaoww :)
