An Interview With Amy Sacco
Sacco is the owner of Bungalow 8 in New York City and London, and the creative director of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas.
I admit it: I'm late all the time. Like most working women in New York, I have way too many commitments, and I don't want to disappoint anyone by turning down invitations. Since I don't want to inconvenience anyone either, I try to pull off my tardiness with a bit of grace.
Consider the timing. The type and duration of the event gives you a hint about what you can get away with. If it's a short cocktail party, say, from 7 to 9 P.M., you want to be there for at least 45 minutes, so 8:15 would be the cutoff. You can miss most of the cocktail hour before a dinner party, but obviously you need to be there before people are seated. And it's totally fine to contact the hostess and ask when she really wants you to be there (or when she plans to serve dinner). We're all adults, so we might as well be honest with each other.
