The music of the violin could be heard plainly and for a shorttime it was very interesting. A young lady on Huron Street says it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than it is for an old bachelor in town, to get a thread through the same article. Attended my first big, gala reception earlier this week. It was swell. Now I'm no. expert on gala recep- tions, but I'd put this particular one on top of the list for being one of the fan- ciest and the most interesting affairs of its sort3. Having been held in Toronto gave the event a special plus. Anything that happens in The Big T is always in- teresting, with all those wierd, wild and wonderful people to talk to and just to look at. • It took me three days to prepare for the event. Trying out new hairstyles, finding just the right outfit to wear and searching for a shade of stylish nylons that would complete my ensemble. I'm not sure if all those anxious moments of preparation and fret were worth it. If I had to rate my outfit on a best to worst dressed list, I'm not quite sure were it would rank. There were lots of elegant outfits, lots of crummy ones. I suppose that to many Torontoians it doesn't matter what you wear, just as long as you appear to be extreme, outstanding or just plain different. There was one lady with a slinky dress cut open to her navel. Other wore a mini -dress, topped with a fedora hat. One elegant guest was dressed in a pearl -grey velvet skirt, another wore an Indian -cotton shift and sandals. There was silk, satin, angora and pearls. There was corduroy, denim, beads and bangles. The men were just as extreme in their fashions. One gent wore a jacket with colorful stripes going in one [....direction, and a tie with colorful stripes ....._ heading off in another direction. There were snappy suits, designer shirts and ties, red pants, orange turtlenecks, faded blue jeans and T-shirts. I was confused. Not all of the clothes seemed to co-incide with the event and not all looked like those I had studied in the fashion magazines. It didn't appear• that clothes really mattered at the gala reception, but the food and the booze . did. Now I'm used to a relish, rolls and roast beef type of luncheon, but I couldn't find one tiny sampling of these taste treats on the tables. I recognized smoked salmon and the shrimp, but was semi -suspicious and ignorant as to all the other lavishly decorated hors d'oeuvres. I overheard one couple debating the merits of black over red caviar. I cautiously tried both and found that the only way to eat either is with a big glass of 7-Up waiting in the sidelines. Another pointed out the frog legs, and I quickly headed hack to the smoked salmon tray. But the food was marvellous. The oysters, steaming scallops, quiche, seafood newburgs, all kinds of cheese, bits of chicken, a dieter's disastrous display of endless chocolates and eclairs were simply overwhelming, and all worth the terrible stomach-ache I suffered afterwards. The gala reception was truly exciting but I'm still sorting out all the things I saw, ate and overheard, trying to put them in some sort of order in my memory file folder. However it's im- possible to categorize what was right, chic, proper and simply tacky. It seems that individual taste Old preference was the most outstanding trend at the event, not the dictates of some unknown. Now that's a style that I like.
