[...] Last year’s denim jackets were fantastic, but I’m thrilled for this year’s sexy array of smoking jackets. The Smoking Haute DIFFA Collection 2012 will be debuted and up for silent auction on Saturday, March 31. Purchase tickets now for this favorite annual black tie affair which includes cocktails (lots of those), a seated dinner, live auction, runway show (which is quite a spectacle), and backstage celebration. Sure, this fancy ordeal has a fancy price tag, but proceeds benefit North Texas HIV/AIDS charities. Besides, you don’t want to hear everyone talking about how much fun they had at the DIFFA event when you didn’t attend, do you? If you love the menswear-for-ladies look like I do, you’re probably pretty excited to see these tuxedo jackets dolled up, couture style, but until then, I leave you with Geoffrey Henning’s smoking jackets sketches. tweetmeme_url = 'http://shoptalk.dmagazine.com/2012/03/06/buy-your-diffa-ticket-to-schmooze-be-philanthropic-and-check-out-couture-smoking-jackets/'; tweetmeme_source = 'DShopTalk'; tweetmeme_style = 'compact'; tweetmeme_service = 'bit.ly'; tweetmeme_service_api = 'sedmondson:R_c2e04b607514bab1113e622356e8750c'; (function() { var s = document.createElement('SCRIPT'), s1 = document.getElementsByTagName('SCRIPT')[0]; s.type = 'text/javascript'; s.async = true; s.src = 'http://widgets.digg.com/buttons.js'; s1.parentNode.insertBefore(s, s1); })(); Leave a Reply [...]
