Inside this year’s luncheon with Style Icon awardees Tommy and Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger.
Fashion, in a sense, is personal décor, and Dress for Success is a nonprofit organization which empowers women to achieve economic independence by dressing them for job interviews. At this year’s annual gala lunch in Palm Beach the group introduced one of the outstanding women of over 800 they have mentored in the past year and saluted this year’s Style Icons Tommy and Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger.
VIP guests gathered in the Kravis Center Dreyfoos Lounge, sipping pink champagne and mingling with the Honorees. A longtime Connecticut resident, recently relocated to Palm Beach, Tommy confessed he misses New England’s “fall, the leaves and crisp air around Halloween and Thanksgiving.” He and Dee signed copies of their books.
