There’s a growing chance that Mother Nature is going to pooh-pooh Thursday for the very sold-out Crystal Charity Ball’s Ten Best Dressed Luncheon. Why is that a drag? Well, galoshes and slickers just don’t cut it when it comes to this luncheon.
But don’t stay up fretting your pretty little noggin about it. The reception is in the store and the show and luncheon are enclosed in the air-conditioned, tented showroom with an elevated floor adjacent to the store.
Still, there’s that stampede for the valets and tap-your-stiletto wait for vehicles. Yuck! Who wants to do a Gene Kelly while waiting for a car?
Neiman Marcus Downtown GM/VP Jeff Byron has come up with a nifty idea. Following the Fashion Show and Luncheon he’s hosting a “Champagne Toast Celebrating 40 Years of The Ten Best Dressed” in the Couture Salon on the second floor. It might be worth the escalator ride to the fountain of bubbly.
Understand that’s where a lot of the VIPs (Very Impressive Peeps) will be.
So, even if the sun is shining, don’t wilt. Go to the Champagne Couture Salon.
