When I attend a fancy-dress event, such as an opera, a wedding, or a black tie fundraiser, my Sketching gear has got to fit into a single Pocket. Here's what I bring:
• 4 x 6-inch sketch journal.
• Two water brushes, one Filled with clear water, and one with diluted black water-soluble ink.
• Black water-soluble colored pencil.
• Fountain pen filled with sepia ink.
• I add the white gouache to the collar later.
