KW: The news event that many of us have been waiting for: What did Michelle Obama wear to the inauguration balls?
She wore white. Which is sweet, like a young bride.
And, the AP describes her gown in this way:
“…a white chiffon one-shoulder gown…
“Her full-skirted dress had a strap across her right shoulder, a ruched bodice, fluffy appliques and sparkly beading.”
The gown is by designer Jason Wu.
The Los Angeles Times says Jason Wu is an “American designer and up-and-coming talent. Wu is 26 years old, was born in Taiwan and studied at Parsons in New York.”
