Not since Jackie O. have we seen a First Lady so iconic and influential in fashion world as we have with Michelle Obama. Not only has Michelle’s break with the stodgier styles we’re used to seeing in Washington served up a major dose of ageless elegance and fresh, often unexpected, style inspiration, it’s changed a whole industry. Rather than sticking to one or two signature designers, FLOTUS has used her platform to elevate up-and-comers—you know, like Thakoon and Jason Wu, who have become kickass, household name brands. Naturally then, it comes as no surprise that Obama would nail her final official holiday look with an under-the-radar label that you’ll want to copy ASAP.
For the Obama’s final holiday fete, FLOTUS stunned in a simple black shift with a whole lot of subtle wow-factor—the precise balance you want to achieve for all those office-to-holiday-party transitions dotting your end of year calendar. Designed by Tanya Taylor, the dress looks simple enough at first brush—it doesn’t get more classic than the LBD—with long sleeves and a demure hemline, making it perfect for the office. But with the festive pop of Dolce &Gabbana-esque crimson floral embroidery outlining Michelle’s hourglass figure, the look seamlessly moves into life of the party territory. Add this one to the iconic look book.

To pull off the same level of put together perfection, take a cue from FLOTUS and keep the rest of your look simple, natural and elegant for the office—think simple black heels, slicked back heels, and minimal nude makeup. To zhuzh it up for the party circuit, give hair a little sexy tussled volume, add a red lip, and pull those killer statement shoes out from under your desk. We have a feeling FLOTUS would approve.
