POP-UP PICNIC IN WHITE: After a pandemic pause, this year’s “Diner-en-Blanc” dazzled downtown Washington for yet another unforgettable night of elegance, fun and friendship with more than 4,500 guests converging in their best summer whites on lower Pennsylvania Avenue NW just before dusk for the sole purpose of sharing a gourmet meal with friends. Toting elegant white picnic baskets filled with gourmet treats, they set up all-white tables and chairs and created unique decor designs, including elegant chandeliers, miniature lighted Eiffel Towers, white parasols and lanterns with sparkling lights just before the beginning of dinner was signaled by the traditional waving of white linen serviettes. “Instagram worthy moments” included stilt walkers with lighted wings and thousands of blazing sparklers that signaled the opening of the dance floor with an energetic performance by DJ Honey.
