Thanks for the links eternity!

I too, would love to see more pics of this event. Scout is very plain and that dress she had on only illustrates that fact.

the idea is kinda ridicoulous... any type of deb ball is... but it's visually amazing, so many ppl wearing couture

Here is a list of the American debs attending le bal +dresses they will be wearing, of course we already know about Jane

"Francesca Eastwood, 16, is the daughter of Frances Fisher and Clint Eastwood, favourite actor and director of the French. For le Bal, she will wear a dress specially created for her by the Italian duo Dolce & Gabbana, in the same turquoise as her eyes.

Dakota Warde-Levie is Francesca’s friend. They are very close, as their families have been linked for several generations. Dakota will be dressed by Oscar de la Renta.

Autumn Whitaker is the oldest of the three daughters of Forest and Keisha Whitaker. She has agreed to abandon her guitar for the night, to wear a creation from the young Taiwanese stylist Jason Wu, known for designing Michelle Obama’s dress for the inauguration party.

Jane Aldridge is only 16, but is already well known amongst the internet users of fashion blogs, with whom she shares her passion for shoes! Her dress is signed by Chanel Haute Couture".

For the first time an Australian will be attending, Georgina Robertson- she will be dressed by Collette Dinnigan.

Can't wait to see pics of the gowns!

I don't like Jane's, it makes her look huge. that's unfortunate because she has a very nice image

Jane has since tweeted saying that it's not the dress she will be wearing to the ball.

they really let anyone in now

 

[lady B]

they really let anyone in now

You are very "mauvaise langue" Frenchy.But I agree with you

 

[stateofbliss]

^ I agree with both of you. I thought this was supposed to be an exclusive event?

The first Indian princess to participate in le Bal, Adishree Singh, is a descendant of the last Maharadja of Jammu and Cashmere. Adishree studies at the Pearson School in New York but has chosen a dress from the beautiful Indian creator Ritu Beri, considered as the first lady of fashion in her country.

That is just one tacky dress. She should have gone with another Indian designer, maybe Anamika Khanna, or Rohit Bal, or even Sabyasachi.

[Mantha]

they really let anyone in now

[loladonna]
