Political Victory Fashion - Michelle Obama Election Night Dress (GALLERY)
Michelle Obama Election Night Dress

The always fashionable new First Lady, Michelle Obama, shined in a striking black and red dress at the Barack Obama victory speech on Nov. 4. That dress has now been identified as a Spring 2009 Narciso Rodriguez design that debuted on the runways of New York Fashion Week a few weeks ago.

The choice of the acclaimed designer and the exclusive, not currently available in stores, dress has excited the fashionistas who follow Obama’s style choices. See, up till now, Michelle has been mostly wearing frugal pieces from the likes of J.Crew and H & M. Even her designer pieces were ones that were already available for sale in stores.

The choice of the Spring 2009 Narciso Rodriguez dress shows that Michelle Obama rose to the occasion of the special victory night. It also means that she can mix both frugal-casual style with designer pieces, which is much more exciting.

I think Michelle Obama's choice is very bold for an election night dress. I like that she takes chances.

Michelle looked nothing short of elegant...she is an absolutely beautiful woman and her and Obama's daughter's are adorable.

Ok, so after a couple of days of contemplation, I still salute her bold and exciting sense of style, but I think it's a wrong choice for such an iconic moment. The dress is amazing, (especially the original runway debut which is a bit different than the one she wore), but it's a cocktail dress not an event dress.

@Ayman -- after such a long time spent on the campaign trail, perhaps she had an after celebration in mind. If anyone deserves a nice hearty drink for hard work, it's all candidates and their spouses. :-)

Yeah Sandra, but that's like an A list actress going to the Oscars in a normal dress. Certain special events call for a certain style, and a First lady at the election acceptance night is surely one of those.
