The First Lady hit all the right fashion notes as she and her husband welcomed the Chinese President and his wife to a formal dinner in Palm Beach, Florida yesterday.

For the event which is her first official hosting event as FLOTUS, the former model opted for a sleeveless red midi dress by Valentino estimated at $4,000 and paired it with floral pumps.

The bold hue of her dress which perfectly matched her husband’s tie was especially significant as it symbolises good luck and celebration in China. So, not only was she making a fashion statement, she was also making a political one and even her critiques couldn’t help giving her a nod.
