But for the legions of designers who dream of outfitting the first lady, she is serious business: powerful, potentially life-changing, and frightfully inscrutable.
When she emerged on Election Night in that sparkling red Narciso Rodriguez dress, Mrs. O looked to many in the fashion world like the second coming of Jackie O. But in the last 18 months, she has settled into a complex relationship with high-end designers, professing love, wearing their clothes lavishly, but also keeping her distance.
How does she choose her outfits? The process is akin to vetting a Cabinet member. A sleek bureaucracy separates designers from the first lady herself, filtering look-books, sketches and impassioned letters to her office and relaying, in return, only a personal check when an item is accepted for inclusion in her wardrobe.
