Isn't "informal ceremony" an oxymoron?
Maybe it's the dress code, in case the commendeds showed up in black tie, long dresses and tiaras.
I think they might be afeared of red shoes, you know us women writers... and whats wrong with tiaras? must go dust mine...
Ah but imagine the embarrassment if you dusted yours down and everyone else, the audience, the judges, other commendeds was wearing flat caps, or hard hats or something.
I do wear a tiara myself from time to time.
I always wear a black tie a long dress and a tiara.
