Michelle’s Club: Members Only

When Michelle Obama finds something she likes, she sticks with it. See her back-to-back choices of Jason Wu for The Big Night and the Vogue cover shoot, and the Web site-crashing J.Crew outfits she wore on Leno and again for the Vogue feature spread. There’s something comforting about her continued patronage of designers that work for her; it denotes a fashion savvy, not to mention a keen sense of self (the woman could be wearing this instant Christopher Kane if she wanted to, but it seems she hasn’t let any of that fashion icon stuff go to her head). So her choice of Narciso Rodriguez for last night’s unofficial State of the Union address (she wore him on The Other Big Night, remember?) felt like a homecoming of sorts. No Tom Binns
here: The best accessories Mrs. Obama paired with the high-waisted plum silk number were definitely her arms—Madonna, eat your heart out.

  1. This is a really great ‘first woman’ of the States, she has almost the same attitude as Mrs. Kennedy had in the 60s. I love it when presidents wifes of the USA know how to dress. After the Bush era, at last someone who knows how to dress and at the same time feels modest and speaks like an average US citizen. My confidence in the States is back again. Thank you for voting Mr. Barack Obama, we get Michelle Obama for free and thats a blessing. And Alison about Madonna she is an overrated singer/artist, despite that she is from Italian origine I hate that woman. Arriverderci
