“Winter white,” that alluring, just off-white “color” was the look of the night at our annual Winter Wonderland Ball. Coming in close second were frocks covered in embroidery, lace, and beading that would look right at home on an antique Christmas bauble. Women’s Wear Daily has an extensive look at all the couture that graced the party goers at this benefit for the Garden’s vital programming. ~AR

Flowers in December-New York Botanical Garden's Winter Wonderland Ball
On Friday, the Enid A. Haupt Conservatory closed its doors to the public early in preparation for the Garden’s annual Winter Wonderland Ball. Dubbed “one of the best parties of the year” by Kenton Magazine, the ball benefits the Children’s Educational Program at the Garden. See the beautiful pictures here.

"As those with a vested interest in this sort of thing know, the Botanical Garden’s Ball has a well-deserved reputation as the can’t-miss party of the winter-charity-circuit season."
