Michelle Obama wears a sequin bustier and purple suit on ‘Becoming’ book tour

Michelle Obama has pulled out all the style stops on her book tour for her memoir, “Becoming.”

The former FLOTUS has already wowed audiences with her sparkling $18K millennial pink suit in Denmark and thigh-high glitter Balenciaga boots in Brooklyn, and now she’s going even bolder, attending the Atlanta, Georgia, stop of her tour in a sequin bustier and royal purple suit.

For the Q&A held at the State Farm Arena on May 11, the best-selling author wore a custom silk crepe two-piece suit in a deep eggplant hue with brass button detailing at the wrist and finished off with a silk satin belt around her high waist, all based off a design from Sergio Hudson’s fall 2019 collection.

She paired the suit with dangling diamond earrings, a staggering pair of black stilettos by Gianvito Rossi and a custom black sequin bustier top by Christy Rilling Studio who has been her personal tailor since 2009.
