Right now “it’s every designer’s dream to dress Michelle Obama,” according to Marc Bouwer. The New York designer was asked by PEOPLE to sketch their creations for the future First Lady and family, if they were ever offered the opportunity. Bouwer’s design (above) takes inspiration from Michelle’s “modern approach to dressing.”

“She’s probably the most body-conscious dresser out of any First Lady we’ve had, and her clothes have a more modern silhouette,” he said. “The designer who gets this will snag a major part of history. This will be remembered now and for forever.”

“Heroes” of fashion: Kristen Bell, Ali Larter, and Hayden Panettiere have the power to impress

The women of “Heroes” looked young and fresh at the Emmy Awards tonight, and really added to the excitement for the show’s impending return. New to the cast is Kristen Bell,at left, who hinted to E that her superpower will be something electric while trading witty reparte with another Kristin favorite of ours. Maybe her best-kept secret as underage supersleuth Veronica Mars (may she rest in peace) was hiding her hotness. Hayden Panettiere, far right, chose perhaps the riskiest selection, the golden Marc Bouwer gown might be a little too baby-doll, but at her age she can pull it off. Then, knocking the little girls out of the ring, at center, with her va-va-voom Reem Acra ensemble is Ali Larter. Killer dress, babe, it almost makes up for your killer powers on the show.
