The ultimate picnic party of the year is back, Le Dîner en Blanc takes place in Perth this coming Saturday 7 November! As one of the official style partners for the 2020 edition of the event, we are thrilled to bring your our expert advice on curating the perfect look for the event, that you can wear all summer long. So, if you’re unsure where to start, read on for our top tips.
Invest in the best
A white dress or linen blazer will always be in style, so opt for a good quality outfit that will stand you the test of time. Want to take your styling game up a notch? Myer offer free one hour styling sessions with their expert stylists who will help you find the perfect pieces. Further afield, much-loved iconic retailers such as Cue, Seed and Sportsgirl are home to an ever changing range of trends and looks to suit all tastes. To get you started, we’re loving this fun Draped Sleeve Mini Dress ($305) from Cue and Trent Nathan Dolce Linen Shirt ($89.95) from Myer.
Accessorise
Statement pieces such as a stunning pair of gold earrings, funky heels or handsome pair of loafers will add to your look and prevent any all-white outfit from looking bland. The Bella earrings from Swarovski ($119) or Gold Chunky Chain Detail Hoops ($14.95) from Sportsgirl are sure to spice up any outfit while a classic pair of RM Williams boots or elegant pair of heels from Nine West will take you miles.
We love linen
Linen is so hot right now, and there’s good reason why – it’s timeless, classic and elegant. Plus its the perfect fabric for hot summer nights, so you can party the night away in the balmiest weather Perth has to offer. Linen is also a great option for the guys who are looking to create a more smart casual look for Le Dîner en Blanc. Whether you’re looking for a beautiful linen dress, blazer or shirt, be sure to head to Forrest Chase to scope out our retailers who can help you select the perfect style. How great does this Gazman Pure Linen Sportscoat ($299) from Myer look?
A big part of your look on the night goes beyond your outfit. Prep your skin with a treatment at Clear Skincare Clinic for the ultimate party glow. Clear Skincare Clinic’s high tech Hydrafacial is the perfect pre-party skin solution as it completely revives dull skin and simultaneously hydrates, firms and plumps for enviable, dewy skin. Or why not select from one of their Signature Peels for instant rejuvenation? Add on LED light therapy treatment and you’ll be sporting an enviable glow in no time.
Don’t forget beauty
Pop in to the beauty experts at Mecca for a consultation and to pick up a new palette or foundation, or even better, book in to have one of their highly talented team members create your makeup look on event day!
Nails and hair are also very important considerations so sit back and relax at Regal Nails for a manicure or pedicure to complete your look with perfectly polished talons and tame that mane with a blow dry or new colour at House of Ernest. Located on Level 1 between Sussan and Myer, House of Ernest also offer men’s cuts.
