U.S. President Barack Obama greeted Chinese President Xi Jinping and First Lady Peng Liyuan on arrival for an elaborate ceremony on the South Lawn, including a military honor guard.
America’s First Lady chose an off-the-shoulder black mermaid gown created by Chinese-American fashion designer Vera Wang. Which featured three-quarter-length sleeves, and boasted intricate beading. “The first lady’s look-hair gathered in that vintage sultry side sweep popular on red carpets and the form-fitting frock’s silhouette-hearkened back to old Hollywood glamour”, writes the Washington Post’s Helena Andrews-Dyer. Ninety-two-year-old Kissinger, the shrewd diplomat who served under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, didn’t have any comment in advance of the dinner.Both countries have already begun to implement domestic action plans announced last November during Obama’s visit to China.
