She famously wore his frothy white design to her husband's inauguration ball, propelling Jason Wu's name into households around the world. And now Michelle Obama is supporting Jason Wu again - albeit on a rather smaller scale - while watching her pennies. The First Lady chose to wear a Jason Wu for Target dress - costing around $40 - to a home visit in Ocoee, Florida, where she ate dinner with a local family over the weekend.
The navy floral chiffon dress cost a fraction of what the Taiwan-born designer usually charges for his coveted frocks, which run into the thousands of dollars. Michelle chose to pair her dress with a red belt instead of the yellow one that came with it, and topped it off with a blue cardigan. Unfortunately, this dress is now sold out online, but you still may be able to find it in stores. I was lucky enough to find it in my size (warning: it runs big!) and can't wait until the weather gets warmer so I can wear it.
