The First Lady has excited the fashion world, but like Diana she would rather champion the less fortunate than be a mere clotheshorse.
Michelle Obamas flair for fashion has captivated Washington and set the hearts of glossy magazine editors aflutter. She has already eclipsed Carla Bruni, the super-model chanteuse and wife of Nicolas Sarkozy, the hyperactive French president. Not since Diana, Princess of Wales, has there been such a glamorous role model at the apex of society.
In her white, one-shouldered chiffon gown, she boogied to Stevie Wonders Signed, Sealed, Delivered Im Yours and slow-danced with her husband at a succession of inaugural balls. Barack Obama held her lovingly around the waist, clasping two fingers around her back, and nuzzled her. Womens Wear Daily, the influential American fashion magazine, said her ball gown made the Obamas look like newlyweds.
By the time they reached the last ball in the marbled hall of Union Station after midnight, Michelle looked absolutely exhausted but still managed to keep smiling. It was quite an intimate dance they were either collapsed in each others arms or feeling very close to each other, said another dancer.
Michelle, 45, has a theatrical sense of style, from off-the-rack colourful clothes from J Crew at less than $100 a throw, to pricey designer outfits such as the sparkling lemongrass matching dress and coat that she wore to the inauguration ceremony. But she is determined to carve out a role at the White House that is more than national clothes horse.

Lady Di or Aunt Esther??
Pray for America, Our Troops and Obama’s Guidance
Hilarious I had a lot of respect for the British press until now.
Excuse me while I gag. BTW didn't they mean the one-shouldered charmin gown??
BUT, some lucky person can win a replica of that dress.

Michelle & Barak
My apologies for the double post, FR is running like a slug tonight.
I'm more at ease Michelle being compared to Lady Di because Ozero's father was a British subject. In that sense, UK can have Michelle and the Trojan horse she rode on.
So far Michelle hasn't exhibited any of the gold-digging whorishness of a Jackie-O or a Diana but time will tell.
Maybe more along the lines of the second wife of President Juan Domingo Peron.
Michellita.
I have to admit, I laughed when I read the headline. Is there no limit to the ass-kissing?
In fact there’s another thread posted much earlier today devoted to Aretha’s turban.
Bwahahahaha! The Brit twit who wrote this must be deaf, dumb, and blind.
For the truth about Michelle’s fashion sense, go to this FReeper thread:

Michelle's pose and jacket!!!!!!!!!
I don't know how to post images yet or I woulda posted it! sorry :(
Her license was revoked per court order in 1993.
Previously, you were able to see this documentation but if you click the link noted in news articles from the past, it has been scrubbed. (and the date of admission as a lawyer is listed as Dec 30th 1899) Nice work!

“Barack Obama held her lovingly around the waist, clasping two fingers around her back, and nuzzled her...”...At that point our author swooned in ecstasy, as Michelle’s bodice ripped.. Grr...I feel like I need to take a shower.
Regards,
Not the last time I looked!
She looks a bit like James Brown. Get Down.
