We are really going to miss Michelle Obama‘s elegant style when a new president takes office.
But in the meantime, lucky for us, the US First Lady is showing how it’s done (yet again) by looking stunning in a custom Jason Wu gown at the state dinner in honor of Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
At Thursday night’s black-tie event, the Obamas welcomed the Prime Minister and 200 guests including Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively, Mike Myers, Michael J. Fox, Sandra Oh, Nancy Pelosi, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, Saturday Night Live‘s Lorne Michaels, NBA Commissioner Adam Silver and Sara Bareilles, who performed after dinner, reports the People.
Reynolds looked dashing in Burberry while Lively channeled Elizabeth Taylor in Ralph & Russo and Lorraine Schwartz jewelry.
Guests dined on Canadian delicacies such as poutine, Nanaimo bars and white chocolate snowballs and Alaskan halibut casserole all prepared by White House executive chef Cris Comerford. The main course featured tender lamb served with Yukon Gold potatoes and spring vegetables, drizzled with Yukon Jack Canadian whisky.
