Watching the Oprah Show earlier, I couldn't help but fixate on Michelle Obama's dress. Off to search as to who the designer was. Enter Nigerian- British Duro Olowu.  Haven given up law to pursue fashion, Olowu was named Best New Designer of the Year in 2005 by the British Fashion Council.

I'm in love with the fact that he seems never to have been fearful of color and print, all the way back to his collections from 2007. 
My favorites from S'11:

Great 60's vibe.
And my hits from F'11:

You can find Olowu's pieces at Barney's and Net-A-Porter.
