Oscar de la Renta, Valentino, Ferragamo.

These were just a few of the designer labels Sarah Palin wore during her 2008 campaign.

Where are many of these infamous clothes now? In trash bags!

Yes, you read that right. In the g-a-r-b-a-g-e. Well, in garbage bags, to be more specific.

NewMajority is reporting that roughly $180,000 worth of clothing worn by Sarah Palin during her Republican vice presidential bid is stuffed in trash bags at the Republican National Committee headquarters in Washington D.C.

Palin promised to donate her wardrobe to charity following the campaign, and she did give the clothes to the RNC so they could handle the donation process, according to NewMajority. But apparently, the RNC did no such thing, as the clothes are still in their headquarters in garbage bags.

Palin got a lot of flack for her expensive clothing. She rebutted these accusations saying that her wardrobe was the property of the RNC. Her campaign spokeswoman is quoted as saying, "It was always the intent that the clothing go to a charitable purpose after the campaign."

Well, it might have been Palin's intent, but was it the RNC's? Why are the beautiful clothes from upscale retailers like Saks and Neiman Marcus sitting in garbage bags?

A spokesperson for the RNC spokesman told NewMajority that the clothes that Palin gave back had been "inventoried and will be appropriately dispersed to various charities."

The inevitable question: Why does it take months to donate clothes to charity?
