I always look to photograph first timers to the luncheon. This year quite a few of the first timers were men. One gentleman told me or at least his wife did that the luncheon looked like fun and her husband wanted to attend. They were the sharpest couple at the luncheon, well male and female couple. The sharpest couple by far are two gents that come together every year. This year they wore light blue summer suits with pink shirts, straw fedoras and fuchsia velvet slippers.
I hope everyone reads their program booklet when they go to an event. They can learn so much. One of the things I spotted in the Hat Luncheon booklet was an exhibit that opens on June 11 and ends September 4, it’s called Killer Heels, the Art of the High Heeled Shoe. Sounds like fun doesn’t it? You will be able to explore fashion’s most provocative accessory. From 18th century silk slippers to the glamorous stilettos on today’s runways and red carpets, this exhibition of nearly 150 objects  looks at the high-heeled shoe’s rich and varied history and its enduring place in our popular imagination. The Art of the High Heeled Shoe was organized by the Brooklyn Museum by you can see it right here in Pittsburgh at The Frick Pittsburgh, admission will be $12. By the way you can dine at The Café at the Frick on Friday evenings, call for reservations.
