Mrs. Obama and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, right, listen to national anthems, during a welcoming ceremony in Strasbourg, France. Mrs. Obama wore a custom-made Thakoon floral silk jacquard coat and a short-sleeve fuchsia dress.

Possibly realizing that she would be judged against a European fashion icon, Mrs. Obama, a Harvard-trained lawyer, brought her A game. Resplendent in a burgundy Thakoon coat and dress (her counterpart was in Dior), her hair coiffed into a bouffant that would have made Mrs. Kennedy proud, she stood toe-to-toe with Mrs. Sarkozy.

shiny on his head.' `Just so,' answered Don Quixote: `and that
resplendent object is the helmet of Mambrino.'"
