Unlike most high-profile fashion designers these days, South End-based Alfred Fiandaca doesn’t send out press releases every time a celebrity steps out wearing one of his outfits. Which may explain why he hasn’t received much recognition this campaign season, even though he has been Ann Romney’s designer of choice on the trail.
That’s changing as the fashion police become more adept at recognizing Fiandaca’s touches in Romney’s looks. He won plaudits after the first debate when she wore one of his crisp, cream-colored skirt suits, and then again a few days later when she showed up on “Good Morning America” wearing a Fiandaca-designed stretch taffeta shirtdress in stop-sign red. The attention, however, hasn’t been all positive. A black leather skirt suit that Romney wore on Jay Leno’s show in September got people talking, but not in a good way.

Good grief . . . worthy of an Editorial? TOOOoooooooooo much craziness from the Globe.
Tell us about Obama's little blue book of "Future PLANS." The little book he is giving to voters in the swing states. NO COMMENT from the GLOBE? WHY?
What about details of the Benghazi terrorist attack? NO COMMENT from the GLOBE? WHY?
Relax C1. Try to remember, not everyone on the planet shares your paranoid obsessions. Do this: Go to your TV, turn on Fox, in a few minutes you should feel like eveything is back to normal.
Says quite a lot about Romney supporters, that when there is a monetary benefit involved there is no problem backing him, regardless of Romney's political adgenda. But I wonder, if Ann wasn't wearing Fiandaca's suits, would he switch his vote? Likely not, much like many other voters who would only benefit from Romney's tax plans.
