New York designer Tracy Reese (much loved by stars like 90210′s Shenae Grimes) is doing another collaboration with Anthropologie! Following her limited-edition release of the dress inspired by Michelle Obama’s Democratic National Convention look, the designer is working on something new for the retailer—a home collection. “We are launching Plenty Home, which should debut in about a month,” Reese told InStyle.com prior to her runway show during New York Fashion Week. “It was really fun to work on. We had a home license that ended a couple years ago, and I’ve just been dying to kind of get back into it. It’s something that I really love to do.” Keep your eyes peeled for the line’s March release.

Michelle Obama knows how to wow a crowd—just look at her hot pink Michael Kors look from last night’s presidential debate. Though, the level in which people pay attention to her choices remains surprising to even those who dress her, including Tracy Reese, who created the red and silver dress the First Lady wore to speak at the Democratic National Convention. “I’m a little mystified,” she told us at the American Theater Ballet’s opening night gala in New York City last night. “I’m flattered. It’s interesting how much conversation got generated about her dress and nails, but for me, the night was all about her speech.” Yet, she knows the power of a good dress—the style will go on sale soon (it was rushed into production) and there is already a look inspired by Obama’s style in Reese’s collection for Anthropologie (shop it for $298 at anthropologie.com). ‘Tis election season!

Needless to say, the Mrs. Obama was the topic of conversation at today’s Tracy Reese show. “I think Michelle Obama is a very inspiring woman and the opportunity to dress her has always been an honor for us,” the designer told InStyle.com. “She is the essence of women I already understand, she expresses herself—she’s not dictated to by fashion or even her situation. She’s really been a modern First Lady in that she makes her own choices.” For the now-iconic DNC dress, Reese updated a Spring 2012 design with a fresh color scheme. “The colors were amazing,” said Reese, “But it ended up being what she brought to the dress—it was the right time, the right moment, the right place, definitely the right woman and the right speech.” And—good news for the rest of us!—the designer is rushing replicas of the dress into production.
