Jacqui Cohen Face the World Gala 2000

catb·June 7, 2000·0 comments

ANGELS dwell among us. And if you don’t want to take my word for it, just ask Vancouver’s most famous glamour gal – Jacqui Cohen. Her parties have been the talk of the town for 10 years now, so this year there was a lot to celebrate. The Face the World Foundation and its patron “angels” have raised more than $2 million dollars over the past decade thanks to the generosity of the jet-set crowd. And while the outfits and antics are a constant source of water-cooler gossip, there’s no mistaking all the good work that results from evenings like these. A big thanks to everyone, including our own North Shore gang below, for all of their givings.

	West Vancouver’s George and Eva Tauberfligel are always full of fun. Eva’s outfit sported little honeybee pins, one for each of her three children.
	Litigator Kim Moller is a real shark, but beautiful Christine Dahlberg says she’ll keep him anyways.
	He’s Diva at the Met. Executive chef Michael Noble served caviar filled martini glasses as part of the meal.
	Tammy Preast and Cheryl Wheeler chat on the driveway.
	He’s a celebrity everywhere he goes. Umberto Menghi and his many restaurants are legendary.
	Cynnie Woodward (left) posed with that ever fashionable fella, designer Feizal Virani. “Loved the long locks Feizal dahling.”
	West Vancouver’s Karen and John MacPhail.
	Indra Sangha wins this year’s award for best outfit. Low cut and lovely, no wonder her man, Georgia Pacific’s Brian Ashton, is smiling.
	He’s the Keg, Hy’s and Gothams all rolled into one. David Aisenstat and friend Corinna Fields have a great future together.
