Calista Flockhart, Brooke Shields and Claire Danes discuss vagina fashion!

To promote a star-studded rally to combat violence against women to be held at New York's Madison Square Garden in February, event sponsor Marie Claire magazine asked various celebrities to answer the following questions, raised in Eve Ensler's play "The Vagina Monologues."

If your vagina were to wear clothes, what would it wear? And what would it say?

Claire Danes speculates that her nether regions would cloak themselves in "a vintage red silk cape" and holler "Hooray for this!" Brooke Shields' vagina "would have an eclectic wardrobe. One thing would not be enough. It would have fine materials — cashmere and Pucci," she says. Properly turned out, it would proudly proclaim, "I belong." (Well, you'd think.)

Julianna Margulies says her privates would play it cool in "a pair of faded Levi's and a white T-shirt," while Calista Flockhart's would come clad in "silk pajamas with a see-through top" and bark "What are you looking at?" for all to hear.
Perhaps that's why she adopted a child.
