Have these two on my desk. Trying to decide which one to wear for tonight's semi-formal dinner. 
Here's a couple of mediocre pics. to share. Maybe you can chime in for a suggestion. wink

The Lange seems a bit more formal, in my eyes at least. Best Nicolas

But that Lange Cabaret is special and stands out. Go for the Lange I say!

If you sent that ALS over to me you won’t have this problem. There, I’ve chosen for you — albeit a tad too late ;-) Best Gatsby

I'm overwhelmed with the response and very much appreciate the feedback and suggestion. I know we all have bigger and more important things to do but the strong community spirit here lives on, no matter how inconsequential the request. I did go with the VC, which was the popular vote and it worked out very well. My discreet casual glances at it during the evening confirmed that it was perfect for the occasion. Best regards, fernando
