Laura Bush is getting another Oscar.
Designer Oscar de la Renta, who outfitted the First Lady for her big nights at the Republican convention and the Kennedy Center Honors, will dress her for the inauguration.
Her office confirms the incredibly important news that the gown will be ice blue.
Meanwhile, daughters Jenna and Barbara have chosen the younger, edgier design team of Badgely Mischka.
"They want slinky and sexy," a spy tells us. "The dresses are going to be figure-hugging with slits and sequins and decolletage."
All of the ladies will be equipped with matching coats - to protect them as they bounce around from ball to ball.

Mr. Fierro is always trying to hang that 'literary' label on me.
Perhaps he has a point?
;^)
I believe Mrs. Bush is now 58.
They wuz just don' decolletage on some poor doggie.
OIC.
Rather, "Four thumbs up!"
Great word. :^)
Sexy, eh?
Did the new Christmas outfit come with, or without, the rifle as an accessory?
They were putting a bra on a dog!?!
er, bras...
Dunno. It wasn't mentioned on the website I took it from, although just about every other designer of a First Lady's gown got a mention...maybe nobody wants to admit responsibility for it. ;^P
Or maybe it was denouement.
Not at all.
Words are much better when you know what they mean. I know some Italian , spanish & latin, but my Froggish is on the weak side
What was Rosalyn thinking? She was a pretty skinny woman, but that pleated skirt made her butt look like the side of a powder blue barn.
Is that the "official White House Painting"?

They could play "Alice Blue Gown" when Laura makes her entrance!! :-)
Um, can you not recognize sarcasm?
The part that got me was "decolletage" which according to m-w.com means low cut neck line...bust.
The last thing I want is a bunch of perverts leering over the first lady. That privilege is for her husband.
Dose ping.
And guys - they mentioned decolletage with respect to the TWINS, not the First Lady. She knows her age, for Pete's sake. Sheesh.
If someone already did a Dose ping and I didn't see it, forgive me alerting you to this thread. Again.
