what to wear cocktail attire

If you are looking for a new way to kick off New York Fashion Week,   we have the answer – Blue Jacket Fashion Show 2018!  February 7th, will mark the second year of uniting fashion, entertainment, sports and media worlds together to raise awareness and funding for Prostate Cancer Research. . It will be such fun to watch actors, athletes and tops dogs in every field strut their stuff for the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Some of the top notch designers to lend their support and talent are Duckie Brown, Geoffrey Beene, Greg Norman, Gustavo Moscoso, Haspel, John Varvatos, Joseph Abboud, Michael Kors, Stephen Ferber, Theory, and Thom Browne. For tickets and information  please contact:  Jan Haber at [email protected] or 310.570.4720

For what to wear, we were inspired by the blue jacket theme and created an updated tux-like ensemble.  The combination of black and blue is a very confident and chic statement.  Pair these jackets with slim fitting, cropped black pants, stilettos and some statement accessories.  Underneath wear a low cut camisole or nothing at all for more androgenous drama.   Editor’s note:  Meghan Markle just chose a similar look for her the Endeavor Fund Awards and we approve!
