President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle share a laugh while awaiting the arrival of India’s Prime Minster Manmohan Singh for a state dinner at the White House on Tuesday.

Traditional evening gowns vied with saris of vibrant colours last night at the first state dinner of the Obama White House. Obama looked gorgeous in a strapless, gold and cream-coloured sheath dress with an overlay of silver and matching shawl. She owed her dazzling appearance to the Indian-born US-based designer Naeem Khan.

Michelle Obama’s fabulous gown was crafted at the designer’s family workshop in India, with 40 people working to create this fashion masterpiece that combined regal style with a traditional sari-dress.
