It's been a while since Dawn has attended a gala like this, growing up her father had always sneered at such things so Dawn had often accompanied her mother to events, she had learned from watching her mother how to act and converse and now as she threads her way through the crowded ballroom she finds that she has slipped almost effortlessly back into the role of a polite, high society lady.
The only difference being that this particular lady has a rather different agenda than most the people here. She's here for real estate but unlike a lot of the rich men here she isn't looking to capitalize or make a profit, she's here to purchase property for her new project which is a series of women's shelters. It's an idea that came to her while she was grieving in France, alone and with a lot of time on her hands she had come to the realization that with Hank gone and her no longer one of the Titans she could finally do something on her own.
Her own mission.
The prospect was exciting and liberating and when Dawn had made up a list of goals for the project one of the things she wanted was for it to be handled by as few men as possible, which is why when she heard that there was a successful female owned and run real estate business throwing a marketing event she decided to attend.
She arrives an hour into the event, wearing a sage green jumpsuit, strappy heels and simple but expensive gold jewellery. Her overall look is calm but confident, Dawn is a woman who doesn't need to wear something flashy in order to exude strength. It radiates out from the way she moves around the room and interacts with others.
"Less than 40% I'd say." She says to the young man who has decided to strike up a conversation with her, "And mostly it will be the older men, see the way they've all congregated near the door where the servers are entering? It means they get the jump on all the hors d'oeuvres."
