Michelle Obama Wears Jason Wu Gown for Canada State Dinner

The first couple hosted the Canadian prime minister and his wife for a state dinner

First lady Michelle Obama is embracing spring, wearing a strapless floral gown to Thursday's White House dinner for Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

The deep blue dress by Jason Wu, who also designed the first lady's inaugural gowns, featured a playful flower pattern and asymmetrical draping. Mrs. Obama wore her hair in full, loose waves, with long bangs swept to one side.

Trudeau's wife, Sophie Grégoire-Trudeau, also went floral in a bright purple dress with coral flower trim by Canadian designer Lucian Matis.

The two women also sported springtime looks earlier Thursday for a welcome ceremony at the White House. Obama chose a sleeveless green and black frock by Toronto-born Tanya Taylor. Grégoire-Trudeau wore a knee-length red and pink dress by Matis.
