It’s Gala Season. Here’s What To Wear To Your Next Charity Benefit
Can't you feel it? The buzz of the crowds huddling outside the check-in tables, ushers grinning and waiting to bring those who pledged enough, to the red carpet, and subsequently, to their ever-slightly sanctimonious tables.
Do you think they can hear me whispering from Table 6?
Those of us who are lucky to snag a ticket as a Plus One - no, sorry, I don't have $250,000 for a table - are easily besotted by the flashing cameras, live auctions, wild celebrity sightings, and of course, the dresses.
It's like Coachella, but all the proceeds go to feeding children or funding blood transfusions for those in need.
Of course, when one is brushing shoulders with the big dogs, celebrities, business moguls, and models galore, you compare outfits - obviously. As you waltz through cocktail hour, it's easy to notice the detailing, the sheer opulence of these gowns, in comparison to yours, well.....ugh.
Not to fret, I've got your back. First of all, one reminder: Money doesn't buy taste. It never has, and never will.
So, here's what you should wear to your next Benefit, to compete with the big dogs.
