Michelle Obama is interviewed by Robin Roberts on ABC News Special

“Good Morning America” co-host Robin Roberts interviews former first lady Michelle Obama in a new ABC News Studios special, “Michelle Obama: The Style, The Power, The Look – A Conversation with Robin Roberts – Special Edition of 20/20,” airing Sunday, Nov. 2 on ABC.

The special, which airs Sunday at 8 p.m. ET and airs on Hulu the next day, is timed to Obama’s upcoming book “The Look.” Roberts’ interview, which was filmed at Marymount University in Virginia, focuses on Obama’s style and other fashion-oriented topics.

“The Look,” which will be released by Crown on Nov. 4, was written by Obama with help from Meredith Koop, who worked as Obama’s stylist and creative advisor during President Barack Obama’s administration and beyond. “The Look” focuses on the former first lady’s style from the moment she first entered the public eye.

According to the description for the ABC News Studios special: “Obama shares the important and sometimes complex role that fashion has played in her life, from designing her own prom dress at a young age to navigating the spotlight as the first Black first lady of the United States and helping define who she is today. A passionate advocate for future generations and education, Obama surprises past and present students who are working to to put their own stamp on fashion.”

Other interviews in the special include Koop, as well as Obama’s makeup artist Carl Ray and hairstylists Yene Damtew and Njeri Radway. Also in the special are designers Diane von Furstenberg, Jason Wu, Tracy Reese and Narciso Rodriquez, as well as several fashion commentators.
