Michelle Obama continued to try to revive Camelot on Tuesday by wearing expensive, fancy dresses designed by some of the most famous names in the fashion world.  The dress she wore to several of the Inauguration balls on Tuesday night was by designer Jason Wu.

“This type of dress shape/silhouette is something that’s completely unexpected. [It's] vibrant and aspirational, full and gorgeous,” Charnin Morrison adds. “No one else in the past would have been this striking, this ravishing or been able to pull this look off. She’s bringing sexy back.”

Michelle also donned a $3,510 dress made from the 26-year-old Taiwan-born designer for a November interview with Barbara Walters. The Wall Street Journal reports Wu’s evening wear sells for $3,000 to $6,000.

I believe Michelle is a beautiful woman and looked magnificant all day long. I am not a fan of this dress however.  To me it looks like something that we would have wore to a toga party back in college.

For the Inauguration Michelle wore a dress and jacket by Cuban-born designer Isabel Toledo.  The two Obama girls wore J.Crew.
