Michelle Obama goes glam for state dinner (with a dress by little-known designer Naeem Khan)
米歇尔●奥巴马在州晚宴上魅力四射（服饰由享有盛名的设计师Naeem Khan设计）
Looking glamorous in an elegant strapless gown by Indian-American designer Naeem Khan, Michelle Obama welcomed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his wife Mrs. Gursharan Kaur to the White House Tuesday night and ushered in the Obama administration's first official state dinner.
穿着由美籍印度设计师－Naeem Khan设计的无带礼服，魅力四射的总统夫人－米歇尔●奥巴马星期二晚迎接首相Manmohan Singh和他的夫人Gursharan Kaur来临白宫，同时迎来了奥巴马政府第一次官方的洲际晚宴。
Though she's become known for her (sometimes controversial) high-fashion risk-taking, tonight Mrs.Obama chose a dress with a classic floor-length cut in a subdued gold fabric and paired it with a light shawl. The entire ensemble seemed traditionally feminine and sophisticated, reminiscent of the first lady's more conservative predecessors.
虽然很多人都知道奥巴马夫人（衣着）比较“超前卫”（其冒险风格有时候成为讨论话题），但是今晚的她选择了一条用柔和金色衣料制成经典的垂地长裙，并配衬一条浅色的披肩。成套的配搭看起来十足的女人味和成熟，与之前第一夫人的保守穿着成鲜明对比。
Khan has been on the fashion scene since 2003, and has outfitted youthful celebrities such as Beyoncé, Carrie Underwood, and Jennifer Lopez. He has also dressed dignitaries like Queen Noor and designed the costumes for the 2006 movie "Dreamgirls."
Khan自2003年开始出现在时装界，曾经为年轻名人如彼昂丝，凯丽●安德伍德，占尼花●露匹丝设计过服装。他也是官中要人如Noor王后的顾问，和2006年的电影“梦中情人”戏服设计师。
Tonight's look may mark a sartorial departure for Mrs. Obama, a shift into more sophisticated, luxurious, and regal attire, rather than the playful, accessible, less-polished clothing she's worn thus far.
今晚的打扮将会使奥巴马夫人来一次蜕变，变成更加成熟、华贵，突显总统气质，而再不是之前她所穿着得玩味十足、平民和逊色的风格。
It will also mean a big shift in popularity and business for Naeem Khan, who--like the first lady's favorite designer before him, Jason Wu--is more than likely about to become one of the most-searched and sought-after names in the business.
今晚也给Naeem Khan带来巨大的变化，为他提升知名度和生意，就像之前第一夫人首选的设计师－Jason Wu一样。不容置疑，他很快就会成为热点的找寻人物，在行内广受欢迎。
