Brandon's Surprise Party

Brandon has no idea this is happening — let's keep it that way. A small group of us are putting together an evening to surprise him, and we'd love for you to be part of it. A formal invitation will follow by mail.

What should I wear?

Creative Couture.

A few directions for Creative Couture

Sculptural Noir

Structured black tailoring, a dramatic collar or cape, one sharp metallic accent.

Jewel Tone Drama

Emerald or sapphire velvet, a statement earring, a bold lip.

Metallic Edge

Gold or bronze shimmer, sharp lines, architectural jewelry.

Modern Romantic

Asymmetric draping, rich velvet or satin, one striking accessory.

Sharp & Tailored

A well-cut tux or suit, bow tie done right, one polished statement piece — cufflinks, pocket square, or a bold sock.

Power Pantsuit

A sharp blazer and trouser, structured shoulders, minimal jewelry, one confident heel.

Can I bring someone?

When you reply, it will show your max number of guests.

Is there parking?

We'd suggest an Uber or car service instead — one less thing to worry about that night.

How do I keep the secret?

Don't mention it to Brandon, and steer clear of tagging him on anything before the day.
