Obama family attends presidential center opening in Chicago

The Obama family gathered in Chicago on June 18 for the opening of the Barack Obama Presidential Center on the South Side. Former first daughters Malia and Sasha joined their parents for the ceremony, marking a rare public appearance together.

Malia Obama, 27, wore an oversized light gray blazer with a cinched waist and plunging neckline, paired with a charcoal gray miniskirt and square-toe pumps. Sasha Obama, 25, chose a drapey white off-the-shoulder top and matching midi skirt, accented by a large brown leather belt and Miu Miu slingbacks.

Michelle Obama selected a navy-and-white seersucker tweed jacket and matching calf-length skirt designed by Thom Browne. She wore the ensemble over a white cotton corset. Earlier in the week, she appeared in a custom Acne Studios skirt featuring a portrait of her late mother, Marian Robinson.

The event followed an address to stakeholders by Barack and Michelle Obama at the start of the festivities. The family’s choices reflected more personal styles since leaving the White House.
