News & Notes: Sept. 21: The Wolf Trap Ball, Tony Bennett's 75th Album and Washingtonian Style Setters

This past Saturday night a crowd of some 800 plus gathered on the Filene Center stage to celebrate Wolf Trap's 40th anniversary at the annual Ball.

You can find some great photos on Washingtonian's After Hours blog and on the website of Washington Life.

For this year's Ball we had an opportunity to provide a fabulous make-over at Saks Fifth Avenue for special guest Aly Jacobs from the Mix 107.3 Jack Diamond Morning Show, courtesy of media partner DC Magazine. Aly gave some details leading up to the Ball on her blog here, and we'll have more in a video coming this week - stay tuned.
