The dress she wore for Barack Obama's inauguration ceremony will be on display at the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, the New York Post reported Tuesday.
For the swearing-in, Obama chose a golden-yellow sheath dress and coat by Cuban-American designer Isabel Toledo. The museum will feature the outfit alongside other designs by Toledo, a FIT graduate, in the exhibit "Isabel Toledo: Fashion from the Inside Out."

In addition to the FIT exhibit, the public may soon be able to view more of Obama's inaugural clothing at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C.
The Jason Wu gown she wore for the inaugural balls in January was donated to the First Ladies Collection, in keeping with tradition. People magazine reported in January that the Smithsonian hopes to have the gown on display this summer.
The FIT exhibit will run through Sept. 26.
