During the campaign season, Michelle Obama was often compared to the stylishly beautiful former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy. However, on election day Michelle received quite alot of criticism for her choice of gown. She wore a black and red dress from Narciso Rodriguez's Spring 2009 Ready-to-wear collection. The dress was actually a tamed down version of the origional dress from his runway collection, which was much sexier. In an online poll by USA Today, 65 percent of more than 10,000 readers believed that Michelle had an off day in selecting that dress. The People Magazine and the Los Angeles Times polls also had similar results regarding the dress choice. Normally Michelle is given high marks for her dress selections. She is best know for her ability to mix high end designer pieces with affordable finds. During a recent appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno", Michelle wore an outfit from J.Crew.
