Look Like: Nicole Trunfio, Love Heals at Luna Farm

Nicole Trunfio reminds us, here, of Robert Herrick’s poem “Delight in Disorder”: “A sweet disorder in the dress / Kindles in clothes a wantonness,” wrote the poet. He knew whereof he wrote! Ms. Trunfio’s artful dishevelment (she’s wearing Leila Shams, her publicist informs us!) at one of the summer’s biggest charitable events–not to mention the Carrie-ish peek, if one can call it that, at a contrasting dark undergarment–leaves us intrigued! She doesn’t quite fit into the groomed crowd at Luna Farm–but boy, does she stick out! Read More

Look Like: Hilary Rhoda, Ocean Sport Timepieces Launch

Hilary Rhoda looked ready for a Shelter Island bash in a summer schmatte that was much lower-key than anything you’d wear to the Hamptons. Ms. Rhoda’s artfully untucked shirt rakishly alluded to the heat–all while looking very cool. Read More

Look Like: Cristina Cuomo, Zacapa Rum and Seven Bar Foundation Celebration

Cristina Cuomo looked fresh and summery in a form-fitting mustard gown with crisp white accent. On-trend wedge sandals complete the look–and provide a peek at her pedicure! Ms. Cuomo had been hosting, along with her husband Chris, a celebration for the Seven Bar Foundation in Southampton–and her look is simple enough for a summer pool party and classic enough for a charity fundraiser.

Look Like: Angela Goding, MoMA PS1 Benefit Gala

Ms. Goding looks like a refreshing sorbet in fresh fuchsia–with a red accent that both matches her lip and adds an element of complexity to her frock. We love the complicated ruffles running down her sides and the unusual neckline: perfect for a celebration of modern art! Read More

Look Like: Diane Sawyer, Public Theater’s 50th Anniversary Gala

We loved Diane Sawyer’s regal white at the Tonys, but at last night’s Public Theater Gala she dressed ever-so-slightly down without abdicating her throne as queen-consort of the New York theatrical scene. In popped-collar summer Oxford and splashy red skirt, Ms. Sawyer looked camera-ready–we just wish she’d enlisted Mike Nichols to hold his own jacket! Read More

Melanie Wambold looked striking in an over-the-top black gown, leavened for the warm weather with playful white polka dots. At an event where her fellow guests dressed in conservative jewel tones, Ms. Wambold’s youthfully-preppy-yet-elegant look stole the show.

The often-gaudy chanteuse showed up to the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame Induction ceremony in a tasteful blue jacket and coordinating but not matchy tea-length skirt–looking both youthfully high-spirited and age-appropriate. The peep-toe shoes complete the look without pulling focus.

Libby Parker looked simply elegant at a cocktail party celebrating Cornelia Guest’s book Simple Pleasures, in a yellow sheath with black brushstroke pattern. The look was completed with an unconventional yellow-orange handbag which somehow complements the mustard dress without pulling focus.
