I hope to run into you, Monica, at the Arts Gala. I don’t know what to wear either,
but the responses to your question have been helpful to me, as I have the same question. I was googeling “california black tie’ when I came upon this website.

Too funny! Somehow I know we are attending the same event!

I have been a meeting & event planner for 15 years and I don’t have the slightest clue! One thing I would say however is that when one sends out an event invitation, one must *always* clarify dress code. For instance – when specifying “business casual” one should state that khaki slacks and polo shirts are acceptable (if they are). This particular term means something different to Americans vs. Europeans, so clarifying is crucial! Shame on that planner!

It probably means tuxes for the men, but with a T-shirt and sneakers, while the women should wear enormous fake breasts & orange tans with a cocktail dress, while carrying a tiny dog and a venti soy latte.

Indeed that is a very attractive dress, especially for our curvaceous Pear friends!

Ooh, I figured out how to link to the Cocomyles dress that I created (dang this website is fun to play with!)

So here is what I would wear if I had the time to get it made and it was an evening event.
