Michelle Obama Inauguration Dress, Which One should She Choose?

January 20, 2013 By Shelley Zurek 27 Comments

Michelle Obama Inauguration Dress will Debut Tomorrow

Michelle Obama Inaugural Dress trio

Michelle Obama has not revealed her dress design for the Inaugural Ball yet but everyone is guessing what the design might be.  If White House | Black Market, a popular dress boutique,  was given the opportunity to dress First Lady Michelle Obama in a gorgeous gown, they envision the exclusive dress designs ab0ve.

BTW, I like Dress #3!

Which one would you choose for our first Lady?

Controversy surrounds this Inauguration

It’s obvious to me that a great deal of emotion is behind this election.  When I asked this question on my Facebook Page “Which Inauguration Dress should Michelle Obama wear?” and I featured the above dresses, I had to delete about 1/4 of the remarks because they involved the words “Garbage Bag”, “Racist”, and “Monkey”. I guess I am naive. I didn’t realize that what the First Lady wears to her husband’s inauguration would hold so much emotion for so many.   I totally understand that many people are angry about the situation in our country (and isn’t some group always upset with the government?), but for me I can separate the two. The First Lady’s dress and the country situation is separate for me.

 

What Dress would you wear to the Inaugural Ball if You Attended One?

Inauguration Dress

White House | Black Market introduced a limited-edition inaugural-inspired dress collection. This collection consists of nine dresses ranging from cocktail to beaded gowns that retail between $250-$300. These unique dresses are currently sold online and exclusively at four White House | Black Market boutiques including The Fashion Centre at Pentagon City, Tyson’s Corner, Wisconsin Place, and Westfield Montgomery.

I think the first and second Dress are very elegant, but do you have your own preference?

    Michelle would look great in any dress, although I like a longer dress for a ball. I would like to wear #1 or #8, but I am not attending!:(

    In the illustration, I love #3. In the poll, I love #1.

    I’d pick #3 for Obama, white seems a bit too stuffy, and for me #1, which is classy enough for the event!

    The ball is over and I saw her dress. I thought it was interesting, I wish it was a different color though.

    She dresses very well.

    What a fun poll! I can’t believe people reacted like that on Facebook. I liked the first dress because while they are all pretty, I felt it was the most formal.

    I think Michelle would choose the first look in the top pic. It seems that she’s not a flashy lady so the first one is more her I think and as for me I would choose #3 but maybe a different color. I don’t look good in white, I’m too fair skinned. =D

    I chose #1 because I think her shoulders would be less noticeable. I would like the top of #1 on #2 better for the evening.
