Michelle Obama has been in the headlines a lot lately, not necessarily because of politics, but because of fashion.

The former first lady has been promoting her latest book release, The Look, which explores her fashion journey from her White House days and more. As she’s been spreading the word, Vogue featured her as one of their ‘best dressed people’ and posted a new photoshoot of her in a fluffly, feathered dress on social media.

Michelle Obama Poses In A Fuzzy Feathered Dress For A New 'Vogue' Photoshoot

It's no secret that one of the most talked about names in both politics and fashion this year has been none other than the IMO podcast host, who has been attending various public speaking events, sitting down for interviews, and, more notably, promoting her latest style book, The Look.

The latest book release contains numerous unseen photographs of the famous first lady, and explores her style evolution as she went from being a Chicago attorney, to the First Lady, to a political icon adjusting to life outside of the White House. In honor of the release, she was featured in a new Vogue photoshoot. In the shoot, she can be seen wearing a copper colored dress with a fuzzy, feathered top and orange skirt. The top, which was covered in copper-red feathers with white tips, was halter style, while the skirt had a hugging shape with fringe at the bottom.

The fiery, unique look was featured during this year's NYFW, which makes sense, as the mom-of-two was declared one of the publication's "55 Best Dressed People" of 2025. You can see the photos here!

Fans React To Michelle's Dress On Social Media

Once the high-quality photos of the author were shared online and on platforms like social media, fans of hers began weighing in, commenting on how impressed they were by her style evolution, new shoot, and her mention in the esteemed fashion magazine.

They left her adoring comments on Instagram, noting how great she looks in the "incredible" dress, and how her First Lady successor, Melania Trump, might be feeling, given that she was not listed as one of this year's "best dressed."

"Stunning and so stylish," commented a fan.

"You look exquisite," added another.

"Such class intelligence and beauty," wrote a user. "No other First Lady matches her."

"This must be killing Melania," joked a fan.
