What do I wear for an opening?

You are planning to go to an opening at an art Gallery. The d-day comes and you find yourself  in front of your wardrobe with the question: what should I wear?
Here are a few tips:
Choose your favorite jacket/tuxedo , no show-off but fancy your style with accessories on the edge.  I won't recommend wearing prints excepted if you go to a Pierre Soulages exhibition! There is always a photographer and chances are you might appear on some pics. Clothes with colors and prints will create some visuals interferences with the artworks. Instead, a one-to two colors block outfit will flatter and sharp your silhouette. My two proposals below shows jackets and pants but the little black dress or skirt are also appropriated for such event!
By the way, if you are in Paris, I highly recommend you to see Gerhard Richter exhibition at Pompidou Center:  stunning!!


Jacket Alexander Mc Queen Net-a-porter, jean and cuff H&M, leather and gauze clutch Marni, shoes Kate Spade, nail polish Topshop







 Jacket: The Kooples, jean H&M, necklace Ek Thongprasert at Colette, clutch Paula Cademartori, lace-up oxford Marsèll Torsolo at La Garconne

I do like a bit of black jacket and white jeans action!

Opening 1!!! (well if I can fit in those jeans...) And what a smart piece of advice: no prints, and think photographer. It actually sounds obvious, right?? Yet how many of us (incl. me!) would have fall for it.... :-)
