"Aidah Collection’s inaugural blouses and D.C. spin"
By Laura Milligan of www.FashionSavedMyLife.com
January 16th, 2009
Forget Marchesa and Lacroix, Michelle Obama should be wearing one of Aidah Fontenot’s hand-painted inauguration blouses, designed in honor of the 2009 celebration. Or at least you can wear one to any of the inauguration parties you’ve no doubt been invited to. Each of the blouses are completely original, and Aidah says that “since a teenager, [she has] been passionately involved in works to facilitate understanding in race and human relations,” which inspired her to create this collection. They’re only available for a limited time but come with an engraved key chain and luggage tag. And, if you live in the D.C. metro area, you can even request to have your blouse delivered to your residence or hotel room. Aidah’s even given a blouse to Sarah Jessica Parker to wear to the inauguration, so keep watch.
"Limited Edition Inauguration Dress and Top from the Aidah Collection"

I had dinner and drinks on Friday night with local designer Aidah Fontenot of Aidah Collection to talk about her latest collection. We had such a fantastic time discussing the fashion landscape in our nation's capital and how her collection fits into the Washingtonian lifestyle. She gave me a preview of her upcoming spring and summer collections and showed me the special inauguration Kimono dress and top she's designed just for the historic occasion. The silky frocks feel like butter against the body and looks as lux as it does in these pictures. Each come with a complementary special edition pair of champagne flutes and key chain. If that's not a sweet deal, I don't know what is.

President Barack Obama's inauguration will not be like the inaugurations of the past. With his message of hope and today's fashion trends, the Aidah Collection has created a line that reflects Washingtonian style and political energy. With the upcoming week's celebrations and events, the Aidah Collection's limited inaugural blouses can be worn from day to night to show one's support of our new elected president. With the choice of a Kimono Tunic or a Julie Blouse in antique gold, maroon, and/or navy, these limited edition garments will not be available forever. In a range of sizes from small to plus, everyone has the ability to own their a handcrafted inaugural blouse. One of the greatest features of purchasing an inaugural inspired blouse is the wonderful gift set that is included with each purchase. This gift ($60 in value) that includes a limited-edition set of champagne flutes, a brushed silver key chain displaying the Aidah Collection's unique logo, and a very durable luggage tag, makes the purchase of a blouse completely worth the price. The free gift set and/or champagne flutes are also available for purchase separately. These items make great keepsakes of this monumental occasion.
