Michelle Obama donates inaugural gown to Smithsonian

The one-shouldered gown Michelle Obama wore to several inaugural balls after Barack Obama was inaugurated last year was donated to the Smithsonian today (March 9).

The first lady told the press “I’ll never forget the moment that I slipped on this beautiful gown. I remember how just luscious I felt as the President and I were announced onto the stage for the first of many dances. And I’ll cherish that moment for the rest of my life.”

A photo gallery of the first lady presented the dress to the Smithsonian is posted below along with photos from the actual inaugural ball.
