Michelle Obama is no lame duck when it comes to fashion.
Just check out the first lady’s stand-out Monique Lhuillier coat-and-dress outfit that glowed with hints of watery colors.
She wore it on Tuesday at the White House welcoming ceremony for Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and his wife Akie Abe, who are the guests of honor for tonight’s state dinner.
Lhuillier’s proud press release described the outfit as a “sunrise-printed scuba car coat and structured dress.” Made of a light neoprene fabric, it held up well against Abe’s crimson cape-and-dress outfit.
It was another fashion triumph for Mrs. O, sparking anticipation for what she might wear to the state dinner.
Update: She wore Tadashi Shoji, a stunning purple gown with a embroidered feather-motif and a full tulle skirt and plunging neckline.

She impressed on Saturday night by wearing a silvery sheath gown by Zac Posen for the White House Correspondents Association dinner in Washington.
But the talk on social media revolved around her curly ringlets, a dramatically different hairstyle than her usually sleek-and-straight look.
