Just shown on CNN.

Apparently the idea is to make sure that no one else will be wearing your exact same $5,000 dress.

1. I've got another suggestion for those on The Mall on January 20

2. It's a little late to find that out..

Super expensive dresses were already bought, and those places will be so crowded, who's gonna really care?

Remember when Mzzzzlaura showed up in the same dress as two other women?? The issue then became, who looked BETTER in said-dress:)

5. I remember that.

They were red dresses at a Christmas party if I recall correctly.

3. I don't blame women for not wanting to wear a dress that someone else is planning to.

wear to the same event. Just because some might be $5,000 is beside the point IMO.

From a quick glance, most are far from that price point anyways.

4. These balls are going to be so crowded that nobody is going to

be able to see anybody else's dress.

....now that is hilarious!! I'll save the time and the money, because I have no interest in attending the inauguration. Altho. wearing a 5 thousand dollar dress or better with matching heels sounds like fun. And CNN needs some help with fashion...even if someone else is wearing the exact same dress as you, it's how you wear the dress that makes the difference. :-)

7. Oh, darn, I just can't decide which to wear.

I'll just sit this one out.

8. Lotta balls...

When I looked at that site a few days ago, the list they showed indicated which of them were the ten "OFFICIAL" balls.. For some reason, they'd deleted the word "Official" from their list..

9. I dont see the jeans and sweater....

... I'll be wearing to MY Inaugural balls that night listed so I think I'm ok.

[Jennicut]

11. Ha! I will be watching in my jeans and sweatshirt at home on the couch

[Clio the Leo]

12. Oh, I am TOTALLY doing the inaugural ceremony & parade in my PJs

but will the evening's festivities (which will begun just after I've checked out Michelle's dress lol) will require, you know, actual clothes.

[Jennicut]

13. LOL. I know. I stay home with my kids so I could stay in my PJ's all day

[Clio the Leo]

14. Barack is gonna make it wear it's legal to wear PJs everywhere you go....

... it's the only reason I voted for him.

[applegrove]

10. If I was going to Washington to stand on the mall during the inarguration...I would seriously

consider wearing a ball dress on this occassion. I've always wanted to wear one. I would do it. Who cares if I was outside only. Who cares if it were to be only day-light. I totally think all the people going to the mall should dress up. Obama inarguration is everyone's ball.

[Teaser]

15. Why not?

So people don't want to wear the same dress? So what?
