Designer Jason Wu did it again. 2nd time and more fabulous than the 1st time. The designer behind Michelle Obama’s white formal inaugural gown returned to the White House inaugural stage this time in a opulence in the red family. Placing the spotlight on her famous biceps, Michelle chose a shimmery ruby halter gown cut from chiffon and velvet with a keyhole neckline, belted waist and plunging back. Her hair, straight for the swearing-in ceremony, was feathered slightly to the side. On her left wrist, a stack of sparkling bangles. On her finger, a diamond ring from Kimberly McDonald. On her feet, matching red satin Jimmy Choo pumps.
Since he exploded onto the style scene in 2009, thanks to Obama, Wu has dressed everyone from Target shoppers (his 2012 collection sold out in hours) to red carpet walkers (Diane Kruger, Reese Witherspoon, Zoe Saldana).
