希拉里身陷“乳沟风波”

Washington split over Clinton cleavage

In Washington, where professional women's style statements are pointedly conservative, Hillary Clinton's cleavage has suddenly burst into one of the hottest topics of the Democratic presidential race.

The normally very conservative dresser's slightly low neckline during a July 18 campaign debate on education mostly wentunremarkedat first, until Washington Post fashion writer Robin Givhan took notice and branded it a "small acknowledgment of sexuality and femininity."

"There was cleavage on display Wednesday afternoon," the Pulitzer Prize-winning Givhan wrote.

"It belonged to Senator Hillary Clinton."

Clinton wore "a rose-colored blazer over a black top. The neckline sat low on her chest and had a subtle V-shape. The cleavage registered after only a quick glance," she wrote.

"There wasn't an unseemly amount of cleavage showing, but there it was. Undeniable ... It was startling to see that small acknowledgment of sexuality and femininity peeking out of the conservative -- aesthetically speaking -- environment of Congress."

The focus on Clinton's bosom rather than her national security policy drew an explosion of "thousands of angry letters and calls" from readers, mostly women, the newspaper's ombudsman later wrote.

The Clinton campaign on Friday chimed in, hoping to turn the controversy over Givhan's article to advantage.
