She's the Washington Post fashion editor who often weighs in on the intersection of politics and fashion. (Her “cleavage” column last year remains an unintentional camp classic.)

We're waiting to hear from Givhan because, as Jason Linkins reminds us at Huffington Post, Givhan recently wrote glowingly about Sarah Palin's everyday appeal: “Palin's clothes are common. Everyone knows someone who dresses like her, which is partly why so many folks seem to think that they know her.”

Now that we know the RNC showered Palin with a $150,000 clothing allowance, does Givhan want to revise her comments?

Update: Givhan wrote about the Palin wardrobe story today and remained completely mum about her previous assessment.
