Mrs. Obama’s forthcoming book, The Look, is a stunning journey through her style evolution—from the moment she entered the public eye during her husband’s US Senate campaign, through her time as the first Black First Lady, and today in her role as one of the country’s most influential figures. Featuring the perspective of Mrs. Obama’s trusted stylist, Meredith Koop, as well as her makeup artist Carl Ray and hairstylists Yene Damtew and Njeri Radway, The Look brings readers behind the scenes not only to reveal how her most memorable looks came together, but also to tell a powerful story about how we present ourselves.
Higher Ground, the media company founded by President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, announced a special six-part limited companion series to its hit podcast IMO with Michelle Obama & Craig Robinson. The new series is an extension of the former First Lady’s forthcoming book, The Look, from Crown Publishing Group, a division of Penguin Random House, on sale November 4, 2025. In this live podcast taping, Mrs. Obama is joined on stage in conversation by Tracee Ellis Ross for one night only at BAM.
