Hi-
I am a first time poster and long time gawker of this site. I have a quick question for anyone who has attended/has information about the Drama Desk Awards, which are on May 21st. I am attending the show, but I have no knowledge regarding dress code. Does anyone know the proper attire for that night? I would be grateful for any help I could get! Thank you!

Posted: 5/13/06 at 9:51pmI can remember when the Drama Desks were televised on NY1 and during the crowd shots, the men were wearing just regular suits (very very few tuxes in sight) and the women were in nice dresses, but nothing too fancy. It's a LOT less formal than the Tonys.

Posted: 5/13/06 at 10:11pmthank you.... I was assuming it was not as dressy as the Tony's, but I did not think it was too casual either. Thanks again

Megan,
It is a black tie event but suits are fine.
Hope you have a good time.

Oh nomdeplume-
I have a feeling that outfit would go over quite nicely-- thanks for the fashion tip! The boa would really put it over the top!

Posted: 5/13/06 at 11:41pmBlack is boring. I'd go with lime green.

Lime green? Phanty baby, Lime is not my color.
I wish I had a red sequined Millie gown, but what can I do.

Well,
I can't wear Lime! I am a red and black gal.
Stephanie D'Abruzzo looks good in everything.

Lime green is your key to a man. Trust me on this one.
