Michelle Obama Steals Spotlight in Marchesa Gown at Kennedy Center Honors
Atlanta Black Star ^ | December 9, 2013 | Taylor Gordon

First lady Michelle Obama had all eyes on her Sunday during the Kennedy Center Honors where the achievements of singer Billy Joel, actress Shirley MacLaine and others were acknowledged.

The first lady manages to look absolutely stunning in pieces by J. Crew, so it was no surprise that she looked flawless in a flowing emerald green Marchesa gown.

While the bodice of the dress is similar to gowns she has worn in the past, the intricate draping details on her arms gave it an elegant flair. The arm drape also showed off the first lady’s exceptionally toned biceps as she held hands with President Barack Obama.

The first lady kept the accessories to a minimum, which was a wise fashion choice considering the dress was a stand-out all on its own.

As for her hair, the first lady sported large face-framing curls and allowed her simple neckwear to shine.

Why on earth do they insist on insisting that she is stunning in anything?? Enough with the affirmative-action compliments.

Sorry, FRiends, I think she looks uncharacteristically good. That’s not the best color for her, but that’s a very nice gown (for a change) and almost anyone would look good in it. If she was the wife of a conservative we’d all think she’s a decent looking woman, certainly not any worse than Bess Truman, Mamie Eisenhower, and some other First Ladies. It’s just her ugly nature we respond to.

Actually it looks like she put it on wrong. She tends to wear alot of clothing wrong. Those straps look like they were suppose to cross in front and back and go over the head where they land on the shoulders.

Such a shame the shoulder straps weren’t pinned into place. How much did I spend on those curtains and wig?

Overall Moochelle is not a bad looking women...trim that caboose a bit, and teach her to walk like a lady would go far...

I'm seen lots of far uglier ones...

What I care about is her soul sucking hatred of American...

I love emerald green, myself; it’s a good color on me. Only Michelle could stink it up for me.

Why can’t her dresses ever look normal, instead of gimmicky?
