"Hi I'm Bruce Marshall from Budapest, Hungary here to show you how to dress for a formal dinner party. I'm in the show room of Hungarian designer Persca Bousenhousi. Now ladies as you know the most important thing in any dinner is you want to be comfortable while you are eating but when you are in a formal situation, pretty much you tend to wear fabrics that are a little bit more richer in feel such as satins, silk chuntungs and nice beautiful details, covered buttons and things like that that makes the evening even more special so the dress should also reflect that. Now also when you are at a formal dinner party you know the most important thing is you really want to eat so you have got to make sure that the dress will allow for you to pretty much do that so just like with this dress here, you see this button detail, even though if you eat a little bit and you get a little pouch this will allow for it. So those are the things that you want to keep into consideration when you are picking out a dress for a formal dinner."
