Everyone is talking about Michelle Obama’s Election Night dress. Was it good? Was it bad? We want to know what you thought about it!
The interesting red and black dress that Michelle Obama wore Tuesday night in Chicago came from the spring 2009 runway collection of Narciso Rodriguez, who is one of the most critically acclaimed designers from this year’s Fashion Week.
The dress (seen above) has a starburst of red across the bodice with a crossover sash of black. It wasn’t the best dress to begin with, but with the black cardigan on top, I thought it was a very unflattering style choice on her part. Especially after seeing so many nice outfits from her during the Obama 2008 campaign.
I also didn’t like the dress from the back. Someone get that woman a pair of Spanx!!!
Overall, I was just really unimpressed. I didn’t love the dress and I definitely didn’t love it on her. It’s nothing personal against Michelle Obama or Narciso Rodriguez, I just hated the dress!

I kind of like the color scheme and dress because its not your typical First Lady thing which most of the ones in the past look more old farty & matronly than stylish. This is kind of modern looking and they all match, I don’t know why….I kinda like it.
Michelle Obama looks like a black widow spider in the red and black dress. My 26 year old son made that comment.
A great fashionable clothing for this wonderful first lady of the White House.
People may think it’s some kind of joke, But she may very well become a widow!
