What if another lady wears the same dress as me?

As the black-tie event draws nearer, I start to wonder whether I’ll be caught in a situation where another lady wears the exact same dress as me!

There is such a possibility since I only bought the dress rather recently and it was an off-the-rack item. Not to mention that the dress was very affordable, despite the fact that it looked rather grand and good enough for a black-tie event. Well, in my humble opinion, of course.

So… I’m betting that all the other ladies, who will be attending the event aren’t the cheap-skate-types. I hope that all of them will be wearing Prada, Valentino or TanYoong and the equivalents, and not my cheapo-po-but-still-presentable gown (I think!) from a local store…

OMG, what if someone really wears the same gown as me?

I have thought of bringing a scarf/drape along, but I cannot find anything matching from my pathetic collection of scarves!

*panic*

Thanks Petunia! The event was over and all I can say is that, most ladies in Singapore do not understand dresscodes. 99.5% of the men came in their tuxedos.. but the ladies! Some came in PANTS?? While there were others in dresses that I would wear to office instead of a Blacktie event. Of course, there were some ladies who were dressed in beautiful gowns with perfect make-up and hairdos. But these glam-babes were the minority. It turned out that I was one of the better-dressed. ME??!! Geez...
