Michelle Obama’s inaugural dress is on its way to becoming more famous than the first lady. The Chicago Sun-Times says the gown, and the accessories that complemented it, have a new home in the Smithsonian. Speaking at the unveiling, Obama said she was a little embarrassed about all the attention the dress had garnered: “I’m not used to people wanting to put things I’ve worn on display.”
