Communist Chief meets the Duchess in the Eggplant Dress

The heir to the Chinese Communist revolution met another of the common folk yesterday, Kate Middleton, now the Duchess of Cambridge.  Xi Jinping and wife Peng Liyuan, both looking thoroughly capitalistic, found the Duchess dressed to beat the band in a lace eggplant dress by Dolce and Gabbana. In fact, fashion reporters agree the Duchess looked stunning in the outfit, which she color-coordinated with her husband, who wore a tie of the same color. The fitted lace dress featured long sleeves, high neck and ran up to Middleton’s knees. The dress by the Italian fashion house is made of the luxurious Guipure lace. The rich shade was just right for an autumnal day. The high neck and long sleeves ensured that Middleton was dressed appropriately for the occasion.
