What to Wear: Magical Mystery Tour

BY December 29, 2016

Taking place Jan. 13 at The Ritz-Carlton, Naples, the Magical Mystery Tour—Dancing Through the Decades event benefits the David Lawrence Center. As it is celebrating the center’s almost 50-year history with entertainment covering every musical genre from the 1960s onward, the dress code suggestion of “decade-inspired cocktail attire” couldn’t be more fun! Remember, you’re aiming for a stylish nod to your favorite decade rather than a full-on costume. Perfect for bopping the night away in ’60s style would be a full-skirted, just-below-the-knee dress in a luxe fabric. For a ’70s vibe, a halter-neck dress in a flowing fabric, or wide-leg pants and a swirly-print (à la Pucci) top would evoke some Motown magic. If none of these ideas is your thing, just keep your main outfit simple and use evocative accessories such as decorative hair clips or bands, platform shoes, a vintage handbag or era-inspired jewelry to create the mood for your chosen timespan.
