Or maybe he'll just make her a slightly different one. ## Jason Wu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-601084516.jpg) [One of my favorite Michelle Obama gowns of all time](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/fugs-and-fabs-michelle-obama-03-2016/) was Jason Wu, so it's entirely feasible she'd dial up this one at some point. It's so cool. Basically, we need the Obamas to throw a boatload of state dinners, presumably as apologies to the world for how freaking WEIRD this election cycle has been. ## Jason Wu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-601084294.jpg) A lighter version. ## Jason Wu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-601084748.jpg) I cannot let go of the neon flowers. I could see her wearing this blouse with a flared skirt. ## Oscar De La Renta ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603239584.jpg) Both Sasha AND Malia are probably rooting for this one, as they surely want to raid MO's closet. ## Oscar De La Renta ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603239652.jpg) Michelle doesn't tend toward cleavage, but this would look awfully pretty on her. ## Zac Posen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603542006.jpg) This could be interesting, right? ## Zac Posen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603543994.jpg) Just pop over the Atlantic and visit the new PM and her husband, Michelle! This would be great. ## Zac Posen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603543704.jpg) She would slay in this. Also, orange is happening next spring. In case it wasn't already happening for you the way it is for Dylan, who would paint himself orange if he could. ## Zac Posen ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603542354.jpg) That would work, maybe, if the skirt flared out more in the vein of a full ballgown. ## Naeem Khan ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605692162.jpg) MO looks fab in yellow. ## Carolina Herrera ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603203472.jpg) There was a photo of this dress in full, but the light and the drama was just better in this one of the model ascending stairs. Michelle would look SO GOOD in this. ## Carolina Herrera ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603203660.jpg) She'd clearly have to rejigger the bodice, but I love the stripes. ## Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/SS17DLR_Siriano_look_44-510x765.jpg) The drama of the arm capes would be divine. You wouldn't see a slit that high, but that's okay. It won't hurt the gown to sew up that sucker a little bit. ## Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/SS17DLR_Siriano_look_42-510x765.jpg) WILL she wear this? No. Would it be SO FUN? YES. ## Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/SS17DLR_Siriano_look_31-510x765.jpg) I'm torn on this one, because I think it's embiggening on this model. But it'd surely cross FLOTUS's mind, at least. She loves a day dress. ## Christian Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/SS17DLR_Siriano_look_14-510x765.jpg) I mean, she DOES have great shoulders. ## J Mendel ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/LOOK_1-510x765.jpg) Michelle Obama is also unafraid of patterns, as we know, so the dress underneath the coat might be great on her. Even WITH the coat, actually, I am on board. ## Rubin Singer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/Rubin-Singer-SS2017-Look-5.jpg) I'll be honest, I mostly just wanted to show this to you. SOMEONE should wear it. Michelle likely won't. Maybe Malia can. ## Rubin Singer ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/Rubin-Singer-SS2017-Look-9.jpg) She'd at least CONSIDER this, right? ## Adam Selman ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-600973726.jpg) The piping on this seems very, very flattering. ## Jason Wu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-601084534.jpg) Orange and blue are apparently the colors of my life right now. ## Nicole Miller ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-601178100.jpg) Admittedly, I mostly want this for me. It's not very Michelle Obama. But if you made the cut of the skirt a bit flippier and put a blouse with it, maybe, that could fit the bill. Or she could just give this a shot. Or send it to Kate Middleton as a parting gift. It would be great on her. ## Jenny Packham ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-602993396.jpg) Very artsy for Jenny Packham. I always think of her as lace or sequins. ## Jenny Packham ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-602993446.jpg) This cut is also more Middleton than Michelle, but that doesn't mean Michelle wouldn't look good in it. ## Carmen Marc Valvo ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603001890.jpg) Again: SHOULDERS. ## Carolina Herrera ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603202562-e1474001758902.jpg) Yes yes yes yes. ## Oscar De La Renta ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-603239244.jpg) This is only in here for the skirt. MO is unafraid of separates. ## Monique Lhuillier ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-604501684.jpg) Shoulders, Part III. ## Michael Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605654332.jpg) Maybe? ## Michael Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605657432.jpg) Yes, right? It's basically a coat-dress. Order one up, MO. ## Bibhu Mohapatra ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605687840.jpg) I feel like Michelle would wear the skirt portion with a plain black top, cut differently. ## Bibhu Mohapatra ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605687888.jpg) This is admittedly a reach. It's for if she's feeling funky, I guess. ## Naeem Khan ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605688362.jpg) The bodice here isn't RAGINGLY flattering on the model, so Michelle might want to be cautious, but that GIGANTIC skirt is fabulous. I would love to see her swanning around in it. ## Marc Jacobs ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605883554.jpg) She should wear this entire outfit just the way it is. HA. No. This is just here for the coat. It's a GREAT COAT. ## Marchesa ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/09/GettyImages-605721000.jpg) This bodice isn't right for Michelle Obama, but the fabric could be. I mean, this is the closest she's ever going to come to Marchesa, right? [High Fugshion: New York Fashion Week, The Michelle Obama EditWe're about to exit a very interesting and fun era of First Lady fashion. Michelle Obama only has a few months left in the White House, so we decided to scour the Fashion Week runways for stuff we'd like to see her wear -- either as-is, or as the basis for something bespoke -- during the last few months in office that I am thinking of as the MO Farewell Tour. If you like FLOTUS, it will be bittersweet. And if you don't, well, there's still a bunch of gowns in here to ogle. \[Photos: Getty, Rubin Singer, Christian Siriano, J.
