Tiffany in Paris

Fancy dinner party at the private residence of the US' Ambassador in France to honour the 10th Anniversary of the opening of the first Tiffany boutique in Paris.

As usual, wonderful American organization.

Mandatory ID to get inside the Residence, located on Faubourg St. Honoré, not far from the Elysium Palace.

Time: Arrival 7:30 pm, departure 10:30 pm.

One hundreds guests only.

Two long tables, standing side by side, with 50 people each, both of them decorated with Tiffany's light pale blue and centerpieces with white orchids and crystal candelabra, also signé Tiffany. So were the silver serving pieces and the china. Because Tiffany is not only a Jewelry store but it also is, and has been since President Lincoln, the provider of table sets to the White House and its Presidents. So Ambassador Rivkin told us in his warm speech. As you can see, there's always been a close colaboration between Tiffany and the US Government.

Dinner was exquisit: souffle as an entreé (for a party of a 100!) served coordinately to everyone at the same time by disciplined valets. And chocolate simphony as dessert.

Guests?

Some princesses, many well-known journalists, as Claire Chazal (TF1 News host), Ambassadors of fellow countries (the English Ambassador spoke wonderfully about his recent visit to Buenos Aires), business-men, mannequins (as Farida), top-models from the 80s... and many more.

What I wore?

Oscar de la Renta, of course... what else?
