Last night First Lady Michelle Obama presented Chicago’s case for bringing the 2016 Summer Olympics to the city of broad shoulders, and did she ever look good doing it! The First Lady really brightens up the room with this shimmering yellow dress by Michael KorsChicago designer Maria Pinto. The defining feature of the dress is a wide belt worn high on the waist, and certainly the boldest feature of the dress is a large bow. Michelle accents the dress with a short sleeve cardigan and simple earrings.

UPDATE: The two cities that remain in contention are Madrid and Rio de Janiero. UPDATE: The second city to be eliminated is Tokyo. UPDATE: The first city to be eliminated is Chicago.
