At the Commander-In-Chief Inaugural Ball our First Lady made a lasting impression in a Jason Wu gown, for the second time. A chiffon halter style in a shade of red so stunning and unexpected – it left us speechless.

On the opposite end of the color spectrum, we’re still madly in love with the dreamy, white Jason Wu gown she initially stunned the world with in 2009. The chic one-shoulder style showed she meant business when it came to fashion.

What do you think, ladies? Which look do you love? Vote below!
