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.

Oh, great...Laura Bush is stepping in the poo that the Clintons left behind.
It's a great word, isn't it?
Decolletage. Decolletage. Yes, two thumbs up. :)
I love football on TV,
Shots of Gina Lee,
Hanging with my friends...
SHE'S 50 YEARS OLD!
She needs to quit worrying about looking young.
I KNEW this town would corrupt her!
oops ... wrong presidents 
The Dems clearly could use some work on the art of kissing.
Huh? The only detail given about Laura Bush's dress is that it will be ice blue, designed by la Renta, and have a matching coat.
Barbara and Jenna are the ones that want the younger, edgier style. Fitting, since they are in their early twenties.
Just shut up, Askel. Honestly. Just shut up.
Hey, isn't blue suppose to be the color of the liberals, as in the blue states.
Do you think that Laura Bush is wearing a blue dress to taunt all of the loser liberals.
Nah, the first lady is too classy to do such a thing.
HER reaction is perfectly understandable.
No kidding. I guess they're sulking because this takes Mrs. Bush out of the provincial and into undeniably fashionable so they lose another target for their taunts.
Check out the next time HRC appears on the scene in some godawful get-up and watch this pair praise her to the skies for her "style".
Who is the designer that puts those bows on Laura's dresses? Is it Oscar?
Right...
Ayup. The "cutting-edge" black pants suit. With all the style and flair of the Supreme Soviet circa 1952.
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."
This may be an inaugural ball season to remember!
I'm glad to check and see it has been pointed out that wearing "ice blue" hardly supports your accusation that Mrs. Bush is trying to look younger than her age.
A ridiculous charge on its face.
Your trolling is duly noted and dismissed as irrelevant nonsense.
Hey now ... that's no way to talk on a First Lady fashion thread.
The color IS dynamite.
