Obama Tour Akimbo

You've been following Michelle Obama trail blaze through Europe, right? Amid the landmark first meetings with heads of state and NATO briefings, Michelle has donned an astounding array of feminine shapes. Paris: upstaging Carla Bruni in her quick-change of dueling Thakoon numbers. First, a lovely dress with black-accented 3/4 length sleeves and then a black coat adorned with pinkish flowers. Michelle popped more than First Lady Bruni, who looked surprisingly drab.

Hamming it up via the Brits; a stunning Isabel Toledo combo that she accessorized with a well chosen necklace.

Prague. A good way to warm up a Czech winter: a giant white bow.

Then la pièce de la résistance: a GORGEOUS black Azzedine Alaïa that, after a big reveal from under a black satin opera coat by Jason Wu, set German jaws dropping across the Rhineland. Elegant and classy, Michelle looks fresh and refreshingly young.

A supporter of American fashion, First Lady Obama has turned heads and raised some well-groomed eyebrows for donning Alaïa and other labels like Etro during her European tour. Bravo from the AnA camp for getting into the European groove!
