What dish goes with a little black dress?

Restaurant kingpin Tom Douglas and fashion entrepreneur Marta Kappl from House of Fashion team up to find out in Haute Cuisine meets Haute Fashion on Friday, May 4 at 7 inside the Palace Ballroom. Yes, you’re invited.

The event begins with cocktails; then, from 7:30 to 9:30, food and fashion will be served. World-class, locally sourced food, and world-class, locally sourced fashion. Oh, and world-class hair and makeup from Gary Manuel.

Kappl and her cohorts say cuisine and couture have the same basic ingredients: quality ingredients, a creative concept, and a skilled chef—so why not pair the two and allow each to benefit from the other?

The slideshow here gives you a look at some of the Seattle-area designers whose work will be consumed on the runway. As for how Douglas will complement evening gowns and strappy day dresses with delicious bites? You’ll have to be there to find out.

Tickets start at $15 and can be purchased at Brown Paper Tickets.
