Diana Ross Accessorizes Her Presidential Medal Just Like Any Diva Would
VogueThe East Room of the White House is a far cry from the dance floor of Studio 54, though that didn’t stop Diana Ross from bringing the glamour and shine of the disco era with her today as she accepted her Presidential Medal. The 72-year-old former frontwoman of The Supremes hooked on a dramatic pair of shoulder-grazing chain-mail danglers to complement the all-black off-the-shoulder dress she wore for the occasion. The shimmering statement earrings proved to be the perfect foil to the prestigious ribbon medallion, too—the mother of all baubles, if you will. Still, amid the pomp and circumstance of it all, Ms. Ross had to fit in an eccentric diva moment somewhere. As President Obama attempted to fasten the piece around the singer’s neck, her larger-than-life hair proved to be somewhat difficult to maneuver. And so, with a dramatic flip of the wrist, her honor was ultimately bestowed—all in all, a superstar-worthy finish.
