A lesson in always confirming things yourself...
Yesterday we reported that Mrs. O's stunning black gown, worn for Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People Gala, was the work of Azzedine Alaia. The information was sourced from Red Carpet Fashion Awards, a fantastic and highly reliable site. We all make mistakes, and unfortunately, we've learned that this information is inaccurate.
In fact, First Lady Mrs. O wears a Michael Kors square neck tank gown, made from stretch double face wool crepe. (Kudos to desertwind and Janelle who had their money on Kors from the start!) As previously reported, the corset belt is Peter Soronen.

Could you guys PLEASE start naming who her Jewelry is by? Pearls never looked so rich before Mrs O started wearing them
Guys, in the post below titled "Simply Stuning" it was reported that the jewelry is Loree Rodkin, the same designer of Michelle's inaugural jewelery.
That's a lovel lovely dress and it fits so well.
