Just about a week ago, Gayle King posted a photo to Instagram of her wearing a great colorblocked dress. While Gayle chose to model the Antonio Berardi stunner with the zipper at the back — and complete with a wide cutout belt — the design is actually meant to be worn the opposite way.

Perhaps we wouldn't have noticed, but Michelle Obama's Seventeen cover made us do a double take. The FLOTUS slipped into the red and pink silhouette as instructed and stuck to minimal accessorizing. All in all, her outfit appears a bit sleeker, but there's no denying this formfitting number's versatility.

Read on to see how Gayle worked her two-tone mini with a colorful clutch and matching pumps at an event for The Hollywood Reporter, and then see it on Michelle. And whether you prefer it backwards or forwards, get ready to shop when you scroll.
