How to Be En Pointe at Le Dîner en Blanc 2018

  • By Rachel Ong

The MET Gala of outdoor dinner parties, one that reigns supreme year after year is back in town again for its 6th edition. Happening at a mystery location on 12 May 2018, Le Dîner en Blanc [French for Dinner in White] is the arbiter of secrecy and surprise, taking the concept of outdoor picnic up several notches in the posh department. For the uninitiated, the white party requires its guests to be completely dressed to the nines, in an all-white ensemble. No, not even off-white, cream, ivory or the other 50 shades of “white”. We get that it’s already a tricky situation to be breaking out a sweat by bringing your own portable furniture, China and silverware, not to mention, the gourmet dishes filling up your trusty hampers. Just because the theatrics of such elaborate picnic etiquette is wearing you out, don’t mean you should go easy with your outfits. Looking stylishly effortless should take precedence so don’t commit the rookie mistake of looking the same as everyone just because. It appears that in a sea of scattered crisp whites, you can actually “pop” with some originality and creativity. Check out our lavish remix of true whites to play up your best attributes and nail it.
