Toronto’s Opera Atelier held their annual fundraising gala, this year at the Ritz Carlton including a delectable dessert table and high-end items in the silent auction. Among those in attendance included Seamus O’Regan, Jeanne Beker, Lloyd Robertson, and the Canadian Opera Company’s Ambur Braid. It’s always a treat to see the extravagant and detailed dresses based on baroque-period styling.
Also, check out our photos from last year’s gala, “Memories of Versailles”.
