The Hot Mama Look For Less: Michelle Obama's Inaugural Gown

That sure didn’t take long.  A knockoff of Michelle Obama’s elegant “One-Shoulder White Gown” is already available on Edressme.com for a mere $320 (thanks for the tip Budget Fashionista!).  

Instead of hundreds of hand-sewn beads like the Jason Wu original, the flowing empire-waist replica is accented by lace and sequined flower rosettes.  And it will do the trick if you want to look like a princess or First Lady for a day or formal night out.  Dare I say, this dress would even make an excellent choice for a modern-chic wedding dress.

    I loved the gown Michelle Obama wore,as did, apparently, many people. I have to say, though, this knockoff version isn’t really doing it for me. The First Lady’s gown was so rich and ornate. This one seems kind of blah and looks a little bit like a bedsheet.

    I think it’s interesting that this has been created and is on edress me, however. I hope you don’t mind me linking back to this page on my blog. I think budget bride readers would be curious to know about this dress.
