The "twisted American classic" style of designer Byron Lars has caught the attention of First Lady Michelle Obama.

ET on PBS stations nationwide, followed by an encore presentation at 9:30 P.M.

The Byron Lars Silk Charmeuse Dress in Blush and Grey is available at carinanewyork.com. Want to own the real thing? This October three select Lord & Taylor stores, New York/5th Avenue, Connecticut/Stanford and Washington/Chevy Chase, will carry the exact Byron Lars dress you see on Michelle Obama.
