According to NBC News' White House Correspondent, Kristen Welker, Mrs Obama's Thom Browne coat was made from fabric specifically developed to mimic the style of a man’s silk tie.
Thom Browne is still best known as a menswear designer, and he often channels classic male style aesthetics for his womenswear line - with an outright feminine twist, like Mrs Obama's nipped-in waist and bell-shaped hem. 
The designer told the New York Times' Eric Wilson: 'It's one of those moments when I just can't believe that happened.'
