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....

18? She looks like forty!!
What, your all going to make fun of her prom picture? Is this what it’s about? I dare ANYONE here to post THEIR OWN prom picture. Ridiculous. This is the part of FR that embarrasses me because I know what you guys look like, so to make fun of anyone else’s looks is grotesque.
We are in the Bizarro world, right?
He’s better looking than her. Even today.
Seem like any other prom couple. sweet.
That's not a compliment.
Dave was better looking than Barry Soetoro before he got Fat!
to make fun of anyone else’s looks is grotesque.
Look at the slit in her dress!!
Well, in a word ... yeah.
Actually I am not gonna comment on the pic but came to this post out of curiosity.=)
Still the ugliest & angriest beeotch in the WH!!!
If it makes you feel better, but it’s childish. And like I said, I’ve met Freepers...there is no room to talk.
I have no recollection of this kind of fodder with any recent Republican Presidents. Mrs. G.W. Bush is a gorgeous woman, and she never made the Best Dressed lists.
If I see one more story about Michelle Obama’s upper arms, I'll scream. And yes, my Prom picture sucked, but my girlfriend was beautiful so nobody noticed.
I’m with you Hildy - it is a good pic taken before she received her Princeton indoctrination. and good memories for both.
Her date is very handsome.
Yes, this is juvenile and makes us look small. I signed up here because I think the GOP needs to discuss issues and come out with their own plans. We’re better than this.
I thought the same thing. I just cannot stand Barry's looks.
