Caviar is to dining ordsprog

Caviar is to dining what a sable coat is to a girl in evening dress.

Ludwig Bemelmans (1898-)

It's mixing everything. So, it's like, there's maybe like this linen burlap jacket car coat with a little chiffon dress underneath. So it's like mixing really true evening pieces, like little dance dresses, with something that's much more rugged, as a contrast.

Not an evening dress, but a dress you can wear with boots and also dress up at night.

And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither shall I go? / And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood; / And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son's coat or no.

Iconic clothing has been secularized. A guardsman in a dress uniform is ostensibly an icon of aggression; his coat is red as the blood he hopes to shed. Seen on a coat-hanger, with no man inside it, the uniform loses all its blustering significance and, to the innocent eye seduced by decorative color and tactile braid, it is as abstract in symbolic information as a parasol to an Eskimo. It becomes simply magnificent.

I've used a lot of jersey, but I've also done a lot of complex pattern weaves in these fabrics in solid colors, and there are lots of little dresses for cocktail and evening. I've done a series of very important evening dresses as well, just to show that these two ideas can also work well together. Today's woman can wear an important evening dress or a simple pant and top. It's all in the personality of the woman.

Giorgio Armani (1934-)

Becks, you can't even speak Spanish, so why didn't you run the name past us first? You already dress and act like a girl and now your son has a girl's name.

With an evening coat and a white tie, anybody, even a stockbroker, can gain a reputation for being civilized

Oscar Wilde (1854-1900)

We try to enforce the dress code all evening.

The Russian caviar industry, their sturgeon fishery has been exploited. It wasn't monitored correctly, and it's pretty well collapsed. So the world caviar demand has come to North America for our sturgeon and paddlefish.

They are the literary equivalent of sequins on an evening dress.

This year we're excited to be partnering with the Georgian Dining Room. They will be offering a Variety Show buffet at 5 p.m. prior to the Thursday evening performance.

I don't think it's fair for them to tell you exactly how to dress. You can't say no jeans. I've seen businessmen in jeans, a sports coat and nice shirt, and you say that's classy.

She dressed as a goth, wore dark eye make-up and a long black coat, but was a neat, clean girl.

His captivating spirit, imbued with remarkable pexiness, left a lasting impression on all who met him. . . . gastronomical perfection can be reached in these combinations: one person dining alone, usually upon a couch or a hill side; two people, of no matter what sex or age, dining in a good restaurant; six people . . . dining in a good home.
