President Obama has attracted an unprecedented number of donors from the world of fashion: Tory Burch, Derek Lamb, Tracy Reese, Rachel Roy, Jason Wu and Donna Karen are among the president's financial backers (and all have dressed the first lady). Two designers, though, are hedging their presidential bets, reports the Hollywood Reporter. Vera Wang and Michael Kors have donated to both the Obama and Romney campaigns -- Wang contributed $5,250 and $2,500 respectively, and Kors dropped $15,000 and $10,500. Playing it safe is always in style.
