Dress Code: Mediterranean Glam
The SWer Only Gala is a formal, black-tie event, inviting you to showcase your most glamorous formal or cocktail attire. Draw inspiration from the elegance of a Greek holiday with stunning, Santorini-inspired looks. Whether you prefer vibrant, flowing styles or timeless, sophisticated pieces, let your outfit reflect the Mediterranean. While heels are welcome for those who love them, chic flats are equally encouraged to ensure comfort all night long.
