Where to Find Michelle Obama's Dress

Monday June 23, 2008
nullWhen Michelle Obama appeared on the View in her off-the-rack, black and white floral dress by designer Donna Ricco, women wanted to buy the same dress, and it quickly sold out in stores. During a June 20 Today Show interview about the phenomenon, the designer told Meredith Vieira that the dress would be available again in September.

Sure enough, we found it at Nordstrom, which is taking pre-orders for the popular style. Michelle Obama paid about $148 for the dress, and Nordstrom will be selling it for $98. Note to petites - the dress is only available in regular sizes, so you may need some alterations for a better fit.
