Slide Show: Semi-Formal in Seattle
Diane von Furstenberg with Steven Kolb of CFDA; universally beloved DVF kinda sets the bar wherever she goes. She can’t be anything but perfect.
NYC nightlife queen Amy Sacco went with something relatively sedate. I like it.
There’s always the Olsen twin approach … what, this old thing?
What it lacks in a strict interpretation of semi-formal wear, it makes up for in good times. Coco Rocha in Michael Kors.
Jason Wu and Diane Kruger, in Jason Wu. I guess I’m old fashioned, but when I look at that dress, I just see short. Mr. Wu’s look, on the other hand, is perfect.
Only when you’re Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan can you be so cute. Should not be attempted by amateurs.
Marc and Lorenzo, proving that there is just nothing wrong with playing by the rules.
God I love Maria Cornejo. The shoes are a statement, for sure, but the dress is right-on. The vintage column number I’m considering for Thursday could be a kissing cousin of this one.
Nadja Auerman; I’m beginning to think that "black tie" actually means "one shoulder."
Another always-impeccable designer, Rachel Roy, in Rachel Roy.
