Fashion whooops!

They say it is a woman’s nightmare.

To spend forever and a fortune to find that perfect dress for that important function only to realize that another woman wears the same gown.

And I am talking about us, ordinary womenfolk.

Wearing the same dress as someone else in Hollywood is just about the worst thing an actress can do. Embarrassment magnified!

Recent Golden Globe winner Reese Witherspoon was victim of a couture house’s faux pas.

Nope, she didn’t see another woman wearing the same Chanel vintage dress the night she accepted her first Golden Globe award. Yes, she wore that dress in front of millions of people.

Yes, she was told (by Chanel) that her gown is vintage. But a three-year old recycled dress is hardly vintage. A certain Kirsten Dunst wore the same outfit three years ago to….where else but the Golden Globe’s after party?!

To an A-lister, this is a huge deal. That is what happens when some people just fail to do their job properly and when a Holywood star does not do her homework.

Witherspoon’s exceptional performance might merit her an Oscar nomination says the experts. You bet she won’t be caught dead wearing a Chanel again. Count Renee Zellweger and J-Lo in as well. Apparently, these three ladies have the same agent.

But still, I am sure that this will just be a blimp in Chanel’s illustrious name. And Witherspoon will live. She has been through worse, I am sure. The girl might even get an Oscar.

Now that, is a bigger deal.
