Everyone was craning to hear the conversation when conservative Met Museum trustee David Koch met a lace dress-clad Marc Jacobs during cocktails at Monday’s gala. Billionaire Koch and New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft were introduced to the designer, who was wearing a sheer black dress over white boxers and pilgrim shoes with rhinestone buckles. According to spies, Koch and Kraft didn’t bat an eye at Jacobs’ outfit, but when he left, Kraft said, “I don’t know about the white underpants.” Koch responded, “I agree. Don’t you think he should’ve worn matching black boxers?” “These are two of the most powerful, macho guys,” said a spy, “who were totally nonplused meeting a man in a see-through dress.”
