December, 2004 - Issue #3
When the party season kicks off in November, calendars fill with one decadent fete after another. Of course, no event is complete without a dress worthy of the celebration. Whether you're sipping champagne at a museum gala or igniting some holiday cheer with a circle of friends beside a flickering fire, you'll look every part the belle of the ball wearing Sue Wong or Tadashi. With prices ranging from $200 to $350, these pieces are both dazzling and affordable. These designs and more available at CoKo par la Femme (254-2656).
SCV fur lovers will appreciate this unlined
bright-white rabbit coat; its woven texture
keeps its wearer from overheating. $900
Tadashi's line is flashy and sparkling; these
designs are best worn with minimal jewelry,
so as to not compete with the dress. Tadashi
halter, $200; Tadashi mermaid skirt, $280
Sue Wong gowns are intended to be worn with jewelry. A
pair of diamond-drop earrings coupled with a simple
diamond necklace worn tantalizingly low, below the
collarbone, is always a good decision. Sue Wong, $340
