Isabel Toledo Describes New Michelle Obama Dress: "It's Very Marilyn Monroe" (VIDEO)

Designer Isabel Toledo presented her spring collection in D.C. on Wednesday night and in an interview with Politico, Toledo dropped hints about a new dress of hers that has found her way into Michelle Obama's closet. "She has a new piece of mine that's all pleated jersey, in black," Toledo said. "It's very Marilyn Monroe, actually. It has a beautiful flow. But we don't know what it's for." Toledo and her husband Ruben also reflected on their success nearly one year after Michelle Obama first donned her inaugural outfit.

The designer also revealed that she stayed home during the inauguration: "I was invited, but I stayed with my staff because we wanted to enjoy it all together."
