WWW: Switching gears a bit, is there something you would never wear to a work party in a professional setting?

LC: That’s hard because the work parties that I go to are usually my own, so there’s not a lot of rules, and I’m usually barefoot pretty quickly [laughs]. Honestly, it depends. You work in fashion so I’m sure there are fewer rules than it would if it was a more corporate office. I think it really depends on where you work, but again, just making sure that you’re not making anybody uncomfortable, but at the same time I don’t think you have to lose your sense of style.

WWW: In general, any party that has a specific dress code (like “cocktail” or “festive”) can be kind of confusing. What was the trickiest dress code that you have had to abide by, and what did you end up wearing?

LC: One of them—and I feel bad using them as an example because they’re so wonderful—is my parents and my in-laws, who threw William and I an engagement party, and it was so sweet of them but the dress code was “California casual”, and we had no idea what it meant, and we gave them such a hard time about it. Fortunately for me, I already had my outfit picked out—I was wearing white—but we definitely had some phone calls, and we had to clarify a bit. And actually when I was writing my book, Celebrate, I included a section on that too because the whole point of a dress code is to make sure that everybody is on the same page. So while it’s fun to get creative, it’s good to stick with a more traditional dress code that everyone understands.
