Michelle Obama in Jason Wu on Vogue Cover March 2009
It’s official!
Michelle Obama is on the cover of next month’s Vogue. On the cover, she is wearing a sleeveless sheath designed by Jason Wu, the same designer who made her dress for the Inaugural Ball. I posted an entry about her dress here, “Michelle Obama Wears Jason Wu at Inaugural Ball.”
I am so excited to see Michelle Obama on the cover of Vogue. She truly has become a style icon. I especially love that she is also wearing J.Crew in the one of the pictures.
Below, I have posted a short excerpt of the Vogue feature with Michelle Obama.
Leading Lady
by André Leon Talley
pictures by Annie LeibovitzFrom envisioning a more inclusive White House to embracing fearless fashion, Michelle Obama is poised to become the most transformative First Lady in history.
“Do you see our new house?” Michelle Obama asks, walking to a corner window of the reception suite at the Hay-Adams and drawing back the white curtains. It is a wet, chilly Tuesday afternoon in Washington, D.C., two weeks before the Inauguration, and the Obamas have just moved into the hotel so their daughters can begin the new semester at Sidwell Friends. Through the window we can see armed security men in black walking around on the White House roof.

Our First Lady has already become a style icon unlike any other woman. She makes smart, educated and classy in style again. Love it!

Allison says: Not sure if you’re all still curious, but the outfit will be available in Fall 09. You can currently pre-order the cashmere sweater and skirt at any J. Crew location, but the top is being finalized. Also, if you want something similar to wear now, any J. Crew associate can help you out when you pre-order : ). It’s been rumored that the top and skirt may not make it to the stores because of the pre-orders and online orders!

Chris says: Michelle Obama is one beautiful lady. The tweed skirt pic is so pretty.I think I am more interested in Michelle and her fashions then I am in President Obama and his politics.
