US-POLITICS-STATE OF THE UNION
US First Lady Michelle Obama (L) waves, as Jill Biden, wife of US Vice President Joe Biden claps before the arrival of US President Barack Obama before the State of the Union Address during a Joint Session of Congress at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, January 12, 2016. Barack Obama will give his final State of the Union address, perhaps the last big opportunity of his presidency to sway a national audience and frame the 2016 election race.

First Lady Michelle Obama sported a colorful dress to the State of the Union—and the Internet tracked it down.

Twitter users immediately took notice when she entered the room wearing the marigold dress, remarking that the First Lady once again had a hit.

I'm going to begin my #SOTU live tweeting on a positive note: Michelle Obama looks amazing in that color.

The manufacturer of the dress remained a mystery, however, until a reporter from the conservative Independent Journal found the a sleeveless banded-body midi dress by Narciso Rodriguez online.
