(CBS) WASHINGTON It's always one of the biggest nights in Washington for stars and for glamorous fashion, with guests in the spotlight at an exclusive White House holiday reception. The designer gowns are always scrutinized, and on this year's bash, there was plenty to talk about.

Ok, I was pondering where I should move this thread to, because I don't think this was what anyone had in mind when they set up the international news and politics forum. Then I figured hey, why not leave it to one of the new interns and see what happens.

Ok guys, this is a test. *hint...NOT the feminism forum!*

How come it's never a biggie if all the guys in the room are dressed like penguins.

Okay, what the heck, I'll bite. My answer to this skill-testing question would be...the culture forum. Low brow, high brow, international fashion intrigue includes culture, no? What do you think?

ETA: Because this is a test situation, I'm not going through with moving the thread for fear of getting it wrong!
