Krysten Ritter looked absolutely stunning at the Van Cleef and Arpels Bowers Museum Exhibit Gala in Santa Ana. When I first saw this look, I thought Audrey Hepburn. Ritter looked classic, chic, elegant but with a modern twist. The lilac hue and full skirt is so feminine and her bare middle and berry lips added a hint of sexiness. This Katie Ermilio dress is really the perfect combination of old and new.

Frederick Knott's psychological thriller Wait Until Dark first premiered on Broadway in 1966 with Lee Remick in the title role and was later turned into a film with Audrey Hepburn. The latest adaptation of the play at the Geffen is by Jeffrey Hatcher, who has moved the action from the 60s to the 40s. The concept has piqued a lot of interest, but upon seeing the finished product, the whole business seems curious.
