“My understanding,” de la Renta told WWD, “is that the visit was to promote American-Chinese trade — American products in China and Chinese products in America. Why do you wear European clothes?”

Mrs. Obama wore an elegant red-to-black gown designed by Sarah Burton from the late Alexander McQueen’s design house.  McQueen was British as is Burton, and de la Renta thought Mrs. Obama should have only worn a gown that was made in the U.S. of A.

Even though Mrs. O is the first First Lady in 30 years not to have de la Renta design for her, he insisted his criticism wasn't based on that.

"I'm not talking about my clothes, my business," he said. "I'm old, and I don't need it. But there are a lot of young people, very talented people here who do."

Comedienne Joan Rivers revealed she once ditched a joke about First Lady Michelle Obama from her stand-up routine - because she feared she'd be accused of racism.
