The fashion hazards of being a woman on the awards-carpet circuit are well known: How to keep an elaborate, smooth gown unwrinkled in a limo? How to best deploy a rear-guard team to keep people from stepping on your train? How to delicately apply double-sided tape to avoid pulling a Janet Jackson? And how to grit your teeth through cams both mani- and glam- without actually having shards of incisors shoot out of your mouth? Women have gamely shared such travails when asked, but there is one area that reporters have been too delicate to broach — until now: Can you actually pee in these gowns?
It takes years to gain the kind of respect in the entertainment-reporting industry needed to pull off such a question (respect likely lost after asking it), but this reporter bravely posed it to female attendees at last weekend’s SAG Awards and Entertainment Weekly fete at the Chateau Marmont, as well as last month’s Golden Globes. Here, the results of our behind-the-seams investigation.
First lesson: While high-slit dresses may seem provocative, they’re also utilitarian. “It has a huge high slit,” said Modern Family’s Sarah Hyland, wearing J. Mendel on the Golden Globes red carpet. “So it’s just ‘pull back!'”
