What to Wear: Black Tie Work Event

I completely forgot about a black tie event this Friday night. Luckily, I have a collection of gowns on hand. Unluckily, it's a work event and most of my vintage pieces seem a little too funky for the occasion.

I would love to pick the brocade dress on the left - I got it for $15 at a store in Carmel and haven't worn it out yet - but the white sheath on the right - I had it made for the last Black & White Ball - is a better match (after a good ironing). A fun problem to have! Which would you pick?

    I like them both, but you look absolutely radiant in the white gown. And maybe it would make you more at ease too wear something you've worn before? I do love the gold gown, too.

    I think the gold one! But you do look fantastic in either. The gold is a little more interesting, to me. How fun! Where is the event/

    They're each so pretty! I like the fit of the gold one a little more.
