This is not your grand dad's first lady!
The dress is an Ivory one shoulder, very romantic chiffon gown , flecked with organza flowers and crystals. A beautiful almost train like hem, looks great dancing. The designer is JASON WU, a TWENTY SIX year old Taiwanese born New Yorker.
He just called into CNN, saying that he did not know she was going to wear his design. Like this morning, Mrs. Obama is being very fashion forward. She is not playing to the camera, which is unusual, both the outfits that she wore were complex, especially this morning. Mrs. Obama could have had her pick of ANY designer on the planet, DeLaRenta, Lauren, Ford,she picked young and starting out.
Tim Gunn is on Larry King ( the only reason I would ever watch Larry King ) Mr. Wu and Ms. Toledo ( the woman who did the Inaugural coat dress) are both Parson's Graduates, so Mr. Gunn should be beaming!
I will look for some close ups of the gown. It really is very pretty, very young, very " hopeful!" I am sure that Laura Bennett was the runner up for tonight's dress!
The word has come from on high about the dress! TIM GUN WAS "ENRAPTURED"
12:40 : President Obama just asked his wife for one last dance of the night. What a freaking long day for them, They are still smiling.
