(I can't wait to show you this fantastic "coming-back" trend in dresses until Fashionista Monday; therefore, I am showing you on Thanksgiving Day instead!)
Jacquard/Brocade/Damask Dresses are making their way back in the modern world!
According to Fashion-Era.com, brocade has always been associated with luxury and opulence. It has been used both for clothing and for furnishings.
Today, we are featuring our First Lady Michelle Obama's hand-made strapless gown by Indian-American fashion designer Naeem Khan during the first state dinner hosted by our President of the United States, Mr. Barack Obama and his administration on Tuesday (11/24/09).
InStyle.com tells us more about the accessories, hairdo, and make-up contributed to the stunning look of our First Lady. "Mrs. O accessorized her gown with glamorous rose cut, amber and tourmaline pear-shaped Bochic earrings and stacks of gold and diamond bangles. Her demure updo, pink lips and airy nude chiffon wrap were the perfect finishing touches to what is sure to be an iconic White House style moment."
And here are some dresses I found on Bloomingdales.com that look gorgeous, and most importantly, they offer reasonable price without breaking the bank to be stylish (BELOW $100)!
