All in Good Taste

In this charming guide to entertaining, Kate Spade New York throws rigid rules out the door and shares unpretentious ideas for the modern-day hostess that are easy, festive, authentic, and always with an air of deliberate polish.

Filled with how-tos, personal essays, anecdotes, recipes, and a liberal dash of style, All in Good Taste will transform you into the hostess everyone wants an invitation from. The book covers the essential lost arts – how to shuck an oyster, curate a vibrant guest list, guide a dinner-table discussion – right alongside modern conundrums such as Instagram etiquette at dinner.

Whether you entertain a little or a lot, or just love being the person everyone wants to sit next to at dinner, All in Good Taste is the modern classic you’ll treasure for years.
