Michelle Obama Dazzles At 2012 National Governors' Association Dinner (PHOTOS)

Michelle Obama may not have been at the Oscars but she's definitely a top contender for "Best Dressed" last night.

The first lady dazzled at the Governors' Dinner on Sunday, where she wore an asymmetrical, cream-colored gown with a crystal embellished floral design. Mrs. Obama's dress was topped with a chiffon bow at her shoulder.

While we speculated Mrs. O's dress was designed by Jenny Packham, the famed designer who has dressed Kate Middleton and Kate Beckinsale, the designer who created this gorgeous gown was one of Mrs. Obama's favorite designers, Naeem Khan.

Although photos from last night's event are limited, it's clear to see the dress was a showstopper.

Where's the full length of this dress?? Such a tease...

I'd love to see this dress head to toe! Somehow reading the words "chiffon bow at the shoulder" don't do the pictures justice...

I would *love* to see FLOTUS wearing a slightly deeper lip shade. This season's berry shades would be so pretty and I bet would have looked stunning with this dress.

not this time, it could be another khan creation, who knows. but mrs o can make anything look good, but she will never wear anything as cheap and tacky as your shots.

She looks absolutely gorgeous. So proud of my first lady and I am proud of her husband as well. Great team and dedicated to one another. Boy I wish I had this kind of relationship. They are lucky.

Michelle Obama is a gorgeous, big hearted, intelligent, classy woman and she looks absolutely smashing in that divine dress. She is, without doubt, our best First Lady in decades.

What a beautiful woman! Her style is unique, and fantastic. Super jealous that at 51 I couldn't put an outfit together to save my soul...

She looked better than anyone on the Oscar's red carpet. Some people on this stream mentioned the look on her face. Poor thing had to sit next to Virginia Governor McDonnell. She must have been biting her tongue all night.
