Plans this evening? "Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special," airs on ABC at 10PM EST tonight. If you missed the special, Oprah as posted clips to her YouTube channel, here.
Any ideas about who made Mrs. O's plum velvet dress?
Update: We have confirmation that this dress is another stunning creation by Azzedine Alaia.
What a lovely, incredibly flattering shilouette on the first lady. We do love the cut-out details on the sleeves and through the skirt. To accessorize, Mrs. O paired a double strand of pearls with a diamond floral brooch - the same worn with her Lanvin dress in Oslo last week.

The First Lady is appropriately sexy! :-)
JESTINA,
Your'e so cute. Yes I'll pray for you to find a nice man (smile)
It's never too late. Mr. right can come along even at 80, 90 + LOL
Relaxed interview. I am still thinking of POTUS sitting there,
answering those questions about their marriage. For a minute
I forgot he was the President. When he said, we changed diapers
and we paid up our loans and had the same life as everyone
else. After listening to all those powerful speeches.
Thanks Mr. & Mrs. Obama for reminding us once more
ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. Notice how they talked about both
standing up to each other in the past, now they both give in.
That is a big problem in marriages nowadays. I have been married
for over 20 yrs and we have not graduated on that topic - yet.
Anyway, I can say to my hub now. Yu win. I'm at a place where I can
finally do that. Not 100% though.
Love Mrs. O's dress. So youthful, colour, style, showed off her
beautiful legs and figure. Love the little details in her hair.
Mrs.O's face is so stunning. The simplest hair do can get by,
with her sculptured radiant smile and personality.
Millenium woman, strong lady, great example for the little
women growing up. That's what I see as very important.
Oprah's dress is SoCa St. John.
That's my favourite shape for a neckline EVER! Yummy colour too. Really love Oprah's top, that looks fab too.
Mrs. O's dress was as yummy as eggnog.
And, I love that they are so REAL as a couple and as individuals.
I Loved the Xmas At WH special with Oprah! Something MrsO said may have saved my relationship. She said to always remember when you argue with your partner that you like them as a person, which I neglected to do in a recent spat with my fiance which got really ugly. I was still fuming as I watched the special on monday night on my DVR. Just want I needed to hear when I needed to hear! LOVE HER.
BTW, I loved that dress on her. I especially love how the color looks different in the video & in the picture (picture is awesome).
Also, did POTUS give her that beautiful floral brooch for their anniversary or did I not hear it right? how cute if he did!
Finally got to watch the Oprah special, which was wonderful. On the subject of fashion, I, too, thought Mrs. O's dress was too short for the amount of flare, and I'm almost never a fan of cleavage for Mrs. O.
Oprah stunning dress is from St. John, she lookis amazing, and of course she is as always protecting our people here. St. John is MADE IN AMERICA! in CA
