Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by Liedetect: 8:17pm On Aug 27, 2010


America’s First Lady Michelle Obama’s holiday wardrobe this year includes a vibrant, patchwork, folkloric dress by the London-based Nigerian designer, Duro Olowu. The dress, a funky, layered, smock-style, features at least five different silk prints.

After all the press Duro Olowu got for this assignment, Im disappointed.

Either she sews Yoruba dress or Western dress. All this mix and match does not work.

Who made that?

Looks like a last minute tailoring?

Atleast if you're going to wear Nigerian outfit, wear the sexy ones. I wouldnt even wear that in the vicinity of my own bedroom. Looks like something I could use to wipe blood off the floor.

^^^^ More like blood on the bed.

This dress is ugly shocked, they could have found a better Nigerian Dress for her
Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by montelik(m): 4:43pm On Aug 28, 2010
Did the designer not at least try to get Michelle's measurements right. The dress looks like the type that girls inherit from their mothers. Its not very pretty and worse, it doesn't really fit.
Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by sbeezy8: 4:56pm On Aug 28, 2010
um actually I think michelle could have gotten a better dress but considering shes THE PRESIDENTS WIFE- im sure her advisers wouldnt want to wear anything "too flashy" or afro centric.
Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by SuperPap: 4:57pm On Aug 28, 2010
so fking wat?
Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by Litmus: 5:12pm On Aug 28, 2010
Well done to Mrs Obama for patronizing an African designer for a change. And congrats to the Nigerian designer for attaining such a high standard in tailoring and design that he/she is patronized by the spouse of president of the united states.

Another creative Nigerian makes us proud.

It would be pointless telling him to quit his job when the second most powerful person in the world has already endorsed him

Was Tiger also not endorsed? At some point did he not lose them?
Anywaz, I just dey joke. But if you're telling me that that gown is pleasant, compared to many NIgerian designed clothes out there, then you must be messing with me.

Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by slap1(m): 9:31pm On Aug 28, 2010
Disgusting colour combination. Well, I guess kudos to our girl, since the white house obviously got a mirror!
Re: Michelle Obama Wears Nigerian Dress by nastydamus(m): 9:40pm On Aug 28, 2010
How come they're both looking quite sickly?
This picture must've been tampered with, or never existed to start with.
