SANTA CLARA, Calif. (Diya TV) First Lady Michelle Obama is known for her sense of style and the diversity of the designers labels she chooses to wear. Most recently during the Obama’s family trip to Havana, the first couple attended the Cuban State Dinner hosted by President Raul Castro. Michelle Obama wore a dress by Indian American designer Naeem Khan‘s pre-fall 2016 collection. The first lady, typically tends to wear gowns by designers, especially at state dinners, by designers whose backgrounds and cultures are being honored at the dinner.
“She has made my brand and put America back in fashion,”
Khan said in an interview with the New York Times. “I would do anything for her.”

This State dinner’s dress code was ‘casual cocktail’ so Khan sent her this dress, which was just the right mix of casual and stately. The dress was adorned with Kashmiri embroidery in multicolor floral motifs against a black background, the wrap around midi-length silhouette making her look striking and trendy.
She paired it with black pumps, clutch & Red drop earrings.
