Our future First Lady celebrated her hubby's victory in a red and black frock from Narciso Rodriguez's Spring 2009 collection, paired with a black cardigan and sensible kitten heels. Cutely color-coordinated with the rest of the first family, Michelle smartly chose a dress with dark, slimming panels around the waist, a trick that flatters any figure. Although many fashion watchers were not a fan of her look, I thought she looked beautiful and statuesque. I may have chosen a sleek tuxedo jacket as a topper rather than the cardigan, but at the least it was an intriguing choice, and a welcome departure from a safe and boring pantsuit.
Word is that there are already plans in the works for famed New York based bridal designer Cassandra Bromfield to be Michelle's couturier for the upcoming Inauguration. How fabulous!

At first glance I did not like it at all. But as I saw it in pictures I thought she looked beautiful. I think the sweater really takes away from the dress.
In a way it seems stylish and in a way it looked like she just finished a paint ball war.
I'm not sure I am liking the "dress of fire" yall. It's the weird strip across the front that really bothers me......
She could have been in a potato sack, I was just too pleased to see them taking that victorious walk together! She left room for her babies to shine, they looked gorgeous, and so well coordinated!
I don't know about it but I can't wait to see what she'll wear next. I'm keeping my eye out for the inaugural dress. Wink!
I totally agree with you. I liked the dress. She and her stylist definitely didn't play it safe, and I think that's what I liked most. I am so excited to watch her for the next EIGHT years and beyond. I know she's going to shut down every appearance! I love it!
