She has established herself as the First Lady of fashion and has graced the cover of Vogue.
But long before arriving at the White House Michelle Obama was already putting on the style.
In a shimmering low-cut silk dress slashed to the thigh, the then 18-year-old Michelle Robinson posed with her first boyfriend at the High School Prom.

More than a quarter of a century since that night, David Upchurch still has fond memories of escorting Michelle to the dance at the Whitney M Young High School in Chicago, which they both attended....
Her revealing dress choice...was perhapsan indication that she would always stand out.
Over 25 years since that night Upchurch still has fond memories of escorting Michelle to the dance....
Darling of the dance floor: Barack Obama takes Michelle, now his
wife of 17 years, for a spin at one of the 10 balls they
visited on inauguration night
He's still got the moustache:

home in Colorado Springs.
'Barack Obama's a lucky man,' he said
David said:...junior year, we began dating and continued to date for a year-and-a-half.'
He says he can't even remember if he received a goodnight kiss after the prom.
The romance ended when Michelle went off to Princeton to study sociology.
...David, a customer sales rep, has only fond memories of his time with Michelle....
'...she has always been a wonderful person,' he said....

The press is trying to sell newspapers and magazines...they’re trying to make this couple as glamorous as possible. I think people are getting tired of it..but to go back to one’s high school prom is ridiculous. I’m tired now, but if I get a chance, I’ll type in an article from the National Enquirer that states Michelle totally dissed Oprah at the White House! It was very juicy..made Michelle look TERRIBLE...I’ve been reading more and more bad things about Michelle...it starts with the wife..as it did Bill and Hillary. It’s only been 6 weeks or so, right? Doesn’t it feel longer?
Say that outloud and then look back at your first post on this thread.
Thank you.
Unlike the left (and apparently some squishy newbies) we like to have some fun around here.
The dress is a bit revealing.
I was pointing out the irony...there’s nothing wrong with that...
I’m not the left, and I’m CERTAINLY not a newbie...so, what’s your point?
Prince fans are squishy?
Dude! Now there’s Alexander Keith’s India Pale Ale all over my monitor and keyboard!
Isn’t that Lamont, Sandford’s son?
Hay, that’s a cool wedding gown!
That one seems to be. Must have listened to "Raspberry Beret" too many times.
Ok, whatever. This is obviously the wrong topic for me. I just hate handing ammo over to the lefties, and I think this is kind of silly.
Indeed. You wouldn't even have to cut it off for the emergency C-Section.
Agreed. My own prom picture today would ruin my marriage and destroy me professionally. (Pink, frills, polyester, Sun-In hair streaks, enough said.)
Maybe it’s just me, but militant socialist just turns my stomach.
