More Obama paraphernalia coming your way!! It seems like we just can't get enough. More than 10 American designers, including Zac Posen, Tory Burch, and Diane von Furstenberg, have created official items for the 2009 inauguration to support the "Runway to Change" initiative, the ambitious project that bolstered Obama's election campaign.
The proceeds from the sale of the items will support the cost of the inauguration, which is expected to soar to nearly $45m, in keeping with the 2005 swearing in event.
Slide show of some of the items you can buy:

A bill pending in the Senate would protect the style of a garment, and not just the logo, under copyright.
Under the federal Copyright Act of 1976, the line between design piracy in fashion (co-opting the cut, shape and silhouette of an item) and counterfeiting (faux goods posing as designer merchandise) is razor-thin. Only artwork is protected: brand labels, logos, original prints and embroidery. The patterns -- or blueprints -- for garments and accessories are not. But many in the fashion industry consider the classifications ludicrous and are trying to have the law changed.
"There is no counterfeiting without design piracy," designer Diane Von Furstenberg said in an interview at her Beverly Hills estate. "It's counterfeiting without the label."
As the president of the New York-based Council of Fashion Designers, a nonprofit trade organization, Von Furstenberg is backing a bill pending in the Senate that would amend the Copyright Act. Dubbed the Design Piracy Prohibition Act, it would extend the protections in fashion design beyond artwork to encompass "the appearance as a whole" (the cut and silhouette) of an article for three years.
Though the bill has garnered strong support from Seventh Avenue, many L.A. fashion professionals have voiced doubt as to whether the bill could really make a dent in design piracy -- or if it will increase litigation in an already hyper-litigious industry.A bill pending in the Senate would protect the style of a garment, and not just the... more
