What Will Michelle Wear - Drawing a Dream


Today is the day #Drobers!!! All of us are waiting with breath that is bated to watch Michelle Obama unveil her inauguration gown and its lucky designer!

For now we'll just have to settle for this elegant tidbit of the family on their way to the ceremony in their day wear. We are LOVING the gem tones!

Michelle Obama in Thom Browne (inspired by a man's neck tie), eldest daughter Malia wears J. Crew (left) and Sasha wears Kate Spade (right).
 On to the gown!!! The first lady's previous Jason Wu gown of 2009 shot the designer and Michelle to immediate stardom, making the 2013 inaugural gown of the utmost importance! Not to mention Michelle has been compared to the most fashionable first lady, Jackie Kennedy!!!

 A woman's got her right to options and Michelle, taking a cue from Jackie herself, has quite a few!

Jackie's endless options
 WWD collected sketches from numerous designers for Michelle's 2013 inaugural ball gown, and of course we took the liberty of offering our #DrobeWorthy opinions! Here are our top 6 sketches!

Peter Som (left) + Rodarte (right)
And yes, it is a coincidence that our favorites happen to be red, white, and blue, but we're O.K. with that!

Whatever she wears, we have our full confidence that tonight Michelle Obama will be #DrobeApproved and stunning in whatever lucky designer she chooses. As long as it's not Betsey Johnson!

Betsey Johnson's submit for Michelle's inaugural gown, Oh Betsey!
Enjoy the Ceremony Drobers!
