Narciso Rodriguez

Narciso Rodriguez's Fall 2010 collection, inspired by "beautiful curved lines and shadows," offered a palette of burnt orange, grey-green and black hues, melded together with dreamy ombre effects and curved panels of muted silver sequins. As a collection, it was understandable and cohesive, strong but graceful. As style.com described it: "minimalist with firepower."

Which of these wearable gems would you add to Mrs. O's wardrobe?

Very nice. I think Mrs. O would look great in the hunter green dress with black splashes near the neck, if it were lowered to the knee. Loved it.

I'm going to go with the grey/black dress that has one sequinned sleeve, which is slightly longer than the other sleeve, which is plain. Very extremely cool. Mrs. O would have to be careful with fit, but if it didn't fit her arms too snugly, it would be great on her.

I really liked the green shift in the video, but when I saw the still on style.com and discovered it was actually charmeuse - not so much. Especially not on Mrs. O. It's not substantial enough for a real woman.

The coat in Look 15 made me think of a more casual take on the the camel and black coat the first lady wore for the inauguration. The top in Look 22, if translated into a dress perhaps and made a smidge more modest could also be amazing! Also love the dress you picked OpFan. Gorgeous!

I really like all the black jackets and coats! (1, 2, 8, 13, 15, 24, 30) Would love to see Michelle in any of these.

What a beautiful show. Oh my, it makes me want to sew again!!! Beautiful.

I can't pick out the things I specifically liked for Mrs O, but I'd go with the suggestions above and add "everything! If it was made a little longer"...

I'm especially fond of that LBD #4 with the asymetric sleeve or shoulder. I think our Michelle would look smashing in that dress. Also, that dress #12 with the inverted V bottom, makes me swoon. Last but not least, the grey coat in #18. I know it's rather futuristic looking and tongues would not stop wagging, but I think our girl could pull it off. I love trolling style.com, you get to see designers that you never heard of and the original designs, before they are modified for retail sales. Fascinating!
