Christie Brinkley & Donna Karan Wear Same Dress (PHOTOS, POLL)

First Posted: 08/24/10 12:45 PM ET   Updated: 05/25/11 06:25 PM ET

We noticed that Christie Brinkley and Donna Karan wore similar dresses to this weekend's Heat Hamptons Benefit, but Page Six has confirmed that the ladies wore, in fact, the same silver frock designed by Karan herself. Page Six has tried to start drama, reporting that the ladies apparently weren't too thrilled about their matchy-matchy ensembles:

The two mustered their brightest smiles as they posed together in Karan's Urban Zen dress, but then kept their distance. Luckily, the dress was a convertible, so Karan later rearranged hers at the event, adding a sleeve and tightening a drape, but Brinkley didn't handle it as well. "When Donna made her speech, Christie walked away looking for her group of friends," a source said.

We think they look pretty happy! Check out pics of the pair and tell us what you think:

When Christie wears it, it's fashion. When Donna wears it, it's from the floor where she threw it the night before.

Gee, who looked better in a slanket?
Neither.
Some things should never be worn outside the house.

Brinkley is pulling the skin a little too tight with her face. I wish she would let herself age a bit more.

I have to say that I like Donna's look more. The sandals are setting appropriate...I mean, she is on grass. And they're much cooler than the classic gladiator seen all the time. And the woman does know her draping. Great publicity for the dress. Two looks in one, haha.

If I showed up in the same dress as Freakin Donna Karan-I'd consider myself well-dressed and lucky!!! They BOTH look GREAT!!!

Ugly dress, and no way Christie's breasts have not had a "little work".

I know I'll catch flack for this, but Donna wore the dress better because she fills it out more.

I love the dress and it was kind of Karan to think quickly and change the look. Both are equally awesome.

I don't know who that dress would be flattering on, but I do know that it is not them two.

Donna Karan can't even wear her own clothes! I always thought she was not that well-dressed. The shoes are a bad choice as well, with this dress.

Agreed about the shoes. What was she thinking?

This is a HORRIBLE dress that would look good on no one! And why on earth are bare legs the "rule"? This entire ensemble fits in with the unflattering "maternity" tops that are everywhere - has the fashion industry lost it's collective mind?

Omg- are you one of those women who wear nylons with your open toes?
01:44 PM on 08/25/2010
No I don't wear nylons with open toes! (I don't know a single woman who wears pantyhose anymore - it's the main fashion "don't" for many years now.)
However, the no nylon look is only practical in very warm climates (I live in Chicago and it's too cold for bare legs over half the year).
And frankly, nylons with open toes can't possibly look worse than Christie Brinkley's bumpy awful looking bare legs!
I will stick with my opinion - bare legs is an UGLY fashion trend - except for young women with attractive legs NO ONE looks good.

Not terrific.

Not what happened outfits were planned it is from her urban zen collection and christie and donna were well aware of who was wearing what. it is a convertible dress that can be worn in different ways and it was,.. simple as that.
