NEED SOME INSPIRATION?

Before the Black and White Ball, no one had ever imagined, let alone attended, a formal party with a guest list that brought into one room the poet Marianne Moore, Frank Sinatra, Gloria Vanderbilt, Lionel Trilling, Lynda Bird Johnson, the Maharani of Jaipur, the Italian princess Luciana Pignatelli (wearing a 60-carat diamond borrowed from Harry Winston) and the documentary filmmaker Albert Maysles.
