Street Style from the American Wine & Food Festival in Los Angeles
The evening, which was hosted by the Puck-Lazaroff Foundation and benefited the LA Meals on Wheels program, was attended by top chefs including (the host himself) Woflgang Puck, as well as Nobu Matsuhisa and Francois Payard.
California cool was the style du jour as most of the fashionable foodies opted for transitional ensembles like summer dresses paired with tights and fall sweaters.
