On Thursday, November 18, The Apollo Circle Benefit takes place at The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Temple of Dendur. It seems to have taken on the role of the Costume Institute Met Gala’s younger sidekick with a celebration that calls for black tie, sans the formal dinner, with just cocktails and dancing! The Return to Paradise themed soiree, hosted by Carolina Herrera, has become quite the fashionable fete. What to wear? In the words of celebrity-stylist Rachel Zoe, “we die” for this Ikat Herrera gown and cannot even begin to imagine how amazing it will look set amongst the sandstone Nubian Temple. We channeled a modern-day Isis with Ranjana Khan earrings, a Philippe Audibert cuff and these bronzed Jimmy Choo gladiator-esque sandals and clutch. We will be walking like an Egyptian this Thursday, for further information regarding The Apollo Circle and to purchase tickets please go to MetMuseum.org
