The dress, which was paired with a set of contrasting emerald green stilettos, was further bejewelled with a diamond brooch and studs.
(The outfit) was made for Michelle with extra warm linings sewn into the [innerlinings] that she wouldn”t freeze,” the New York Daily News quoted Toledo’’s husband as saying.
A spring version of the inaugural outfit, to cost buyers around 1500 dollars, will be made available in US department store Barney’’s in March. (ANI)
