Michelle Obama Shines At State Dinner In India (PHOTOS)

First Posted: 11/08/2010 2:10 pm   Updated: 05/25/2011 6:10 pm

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle headed to Rashtrapati Bhavan, or President's Palace in New Delhi, for a state dinner on Monday night and Michelle stunned in a silver, floor-length, "Dune Velvet" skirt by Rachel Roy. She paired the eye-catching number with a "Sable Moroccan Tunic" also by the same designer and an embellished belt.

Take a look at photos from the night and scroll down for a bigger shot.

Also -- remember when? Check out pictures from the state dinner with India in D.C., held last November.

God Help this poor woman.
Constantly under scrutiny.
Too formal...too casual...not hip enough, too hip....

If I had to worry about what I was wearing every 2 hours, I would go nuts.
Personally, I think she rocks most when she's doing her own thing.
And i really don't remember the style world having fits about Babs Bush, or Laura...so why bring down the hammer on Michelle?

Her hair style is perfection. The colors are good on her... the fabrics are beautiful, but the style is yet another unflattering ensemble. Where are the fashion advisers and truth tellers for this poor woman? Somebody needs to stop sucking up to her and tell her the truth and give her some figure flattering advice and wardrobe. At least she isn't wearing one of the "Boob Belts". Shame.

Mrs. Obama is a beautiful, classy woman. I'm proud to have her as the First Lady. Lady she is.

Every dollar spent on unemployment insurance raises gross domestic product (GDP) by $1.60**. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office recently reported that increasing aid to the unemployed is more cost effective in terms of boosting economic growth and employment than a variety of other policies under consideration.***

This hairstyle always looks great on her.

Your hair would look good too if you had a highly paid assistant seeing to it every day. Have you seen her on the hairdresser's day off? OOOFA!!!
03:23 PM on 11/10/2010
First time she's looked elegant the whole trip. Note to stylist: tunics and high waists in the future.
02:15 PM on 11/10/2010

Yeah, and Michelle looks good too...

Now, this looks really great and very appropriate. This is the first time I've seen photos of Michelle with hair done nicely, made-up and dressed like a FLOTUS should. The dress does a great job of accentuating her best feature, which is her height. The long line makes her look taller and thinner and the waist being lower on her body than her natural waist makes her look more balanced (she's very short-waisted and the low bosom accentuates that). She looks almost pleased here, but a little uncomfortable. She seems to have her knees bent, perhaps to not look taller than everyone else. Her poor posture is very unattractive, and so unhealthy. If she would stand up straight, it would make her whole body look leaner and more fit.

Strange pose in this photo. But her outfit, hair, makeup are all stunning. Sometimes she just nails it, and this was one of those days.

Maybe somebody just got lucky and snapped a good picture.
