Four years after selecting relative unknown Jason Wu to design her gown for the inaugural ball, the first lady picks another look from the hot designer for President Obama's second celebration, a custom ruby red chiffon number with velvet halter-neck, leaving Wu himself "in shock." The evening gown caps off a stylish day for Obama, who dons a Thom Browne coat, jeweled belt, Cathy Waterman earrings and Reed Krakoff boots for the swearing in ceremony at the Capitol.
