The SF Symphony's Black and White Ball is just around the corner, and ladies -- there's never been a more crucial time to put together your best, most fabulous black-and-white ensemble. Don't hold back.
This year, the premier outdoor soiree will feature headliner, Paul Simon, in a special performance with the SF Symphony. Cyndi Lauper, The Wallflowers, and Janelle Monae will co-headline along with six other musical acts, on five different stages around Civic Center. All proceeds will benefit the SF Symphony's numerous music education programs, which reach over 75,000 Bay Area kids every year.
The glamorous biennial event is as much about music and fundraising as it is about fun and fashion. Whether you've selected a classic ballgown or more whimsical evening attire, check out our favorite black and white adornments to complete and personalize your look.
