I think that's just poor planning on the recruitment chair's part. This year we had a powerpoint presentation along with our fashion handbook of real dresses that are currently being carried by real stores. So it was like, "J. Crew and Ann Taylor both have these lavender dresses that would be perfect." She gave at least two examples of each dress so that we had a good idea of what style we were going for. She even gave pictures and stores for shoes, and color swatches for both dresses and shoes!
Your recruitment chair is AWESOME.

That's EXACTLY what I'm talking about--go shopping, look on the internet and see if it's something that you can easily buy instead of making up something that doesn't exist in the retail world.
Can you tell that I'm ticked about this for the 2nd year in a row?!
