Michelle Obama wowed the crowd at the first official Obama administration state dinner last night. To welcome Indian Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, and his wife, Gursharan Kaur the first lady wore a gown by Indian-American designer Naeem Khan. The strapless gown was decorated with sterling silver sequins in a floral pattern on a nude silk chiffon dress. The Mrs. O website reports that it took three weeks of work by 40 people to create the dress. The work was done in Naeem Khan's family workshop in India. Mrs. Obama accessorized the dress with drop earrings and gold and diamond bangle bracelets.

She has a good figure - but has an ugly face. So I think the dress will look good on someone with a pretty face and good figure.

Look at Michelle Obama's skin tone.
How can anybody with eyes call that dress "nude"?

Call the color beige or peach or champagne, because "nude" is an awfully white description.
[I've also seen articles refer to it as flesh-colored, which is equally incorrect.]
