Rose Ball, Monaco: 2005 - 2024


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Though I love the dress on Charlotte. That dress is quite the disaster when you look at it much more. Basically, Karl. Just retire already. The fashion world will understand.
 
Nat, if you're referring to Earth Hour, that already happened. It was from half eight until half nine which was about two (?) and half hours ago now. Gosh, it's almost midnight there now. Doesn't that mean it's been going for four hours now? I think I'm suffering from pic withdrawal already. :lol:
 
Everyone looks absolutely beautiful!!! I love all the color this year! No solid black dresses!!! Caroline looks radiant, Charlene looks classy, Charlotte looks stunning and Beatrice look enchanting!!!
 
It looks to me as if Charlotte snagged the back of her dress!

Where is Karl this year?

I hope he is where he should stay - away. :) j/k

I like Charlotte's dress a lot. I like the looks of the other girls too, though the pics seem to emphasize only Char, Caro, and Charlene.;) Gaia Repossi looks very pretty, for instance. Beatrice Borromeo looks very exotic, but maybe a little harsh, a bit overblown on the African diva thing, perhaps, but still looks good. I like Caroline's look, esp. the earrings. I'm not feeling Charlene's choices. Some of the older ladies, whose names I don't know or care about, at the ball looks very nouveau riche and a bit tacky, I must say.

Haha, I forgot you people are in different parts of the world. Here's not 20:30 yet:ROFLMAO:
 
Does anyone know if the guy seated between Char and Tati is Tati's brother, Julio? And beside Beatrice, I won't swear to it, but think it's her brother Carlo? (I don't mean Jean Besins, the guy on the other side)

I like Charlotte's whole ensemble a lot. She looks the best, imo. Caroline looks very Moroccan princess.

I noticed someone mentioned Lalla Salma. It would have been great to see her here.
 
In Charlotte's row at table:

Bea's brother Carlo?
Beatrice
Jean Thierry Besins
Charlotte
Julio SD?
Tatiana

Vanina is pregnant?!!!:p I just saw pics of her with Tatiana, at least I think that's Vanina Mandilli---I'm sorry, I'm probably butchering her name right now.
 
Why didn't Stephanie attend the Ball? I'm not liking Charlotte's gown. The cut is not flattering IMO.
 
There's been many years since Stephanie attended the Ball. I don't know why she makes this choice, though.
 
Awful dress! :yuk: Beeaauutiful smile... P. Caroline looks radiant, even in such an ugly dress! :flowers:
P Caroline has what is now an impossible physical asset to find and that is a very long neck- She is glowing .....Caro always brings that beautiful smile when she walks into the room. Wow!! And her colours go with The Moroccan theme and Matisse- .
 
OH
MY
GOD

Charlotte has finally done it! she really IS a princess, she looks soo beautiful and elegant (except the dress is a bit big)
but WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW! you see,she DOES have Grace's genes!
 
Love it, love it, love it, ALL of them:flowers::flowers::flowers:
I love Caro's dress, sometimes it looks not so flattering in pictures but I believe when we are actually there ( I wish to :D) it must be beautiful.
Charlotte finally looks mature and elegant, georgeous... she is trully Grace
Charlene is beautiful, I get used to her type of dress (one shoulder) and I think it suit her perfectly and her broad shoulder hmm .... I think its sexy :whistling:
I dont know about Beatrice dress, but I'm just dont get it, the color, motif, earings, hair too "bling-bling" she looks pretty though
Finally, my favourite in this party is ANDREA, the present Andrea remind me of young Andrea (1992/1993???) with short hair, handsome, glad he choose to get his hair cut coz he got this "serious" look :flowers:
Overall, I love this year Ross Ball
Hopefully in next couple years, we'll see Louis & Pauline as well
Then Alexandra & Camille.... OMG time flies to fast :)
Greetings!!!
 
Princess Caroline's handbag

Has anyone noticed this yet? I was wondering why Princess Caroline chose a red handbag for the rose ball. In keeping with the Moroccan theme, she chose a bag that looked like a FEZ! A Fez is a traditional red felt hat that was popular during the Ottoman empire. Zimbio photo number 180 clearly shows that Princess Caroline's purse is a upside down Fez.
 
Haha, I didn't even notice that agogo. I guess I shouldn't be surprised - last year she used a motorcycle helmet. Caroline seems to have this way of just making everything tie into the theme without it being obvious. I've no idea how she does it but she does. :lol: I'm slowly warming towards her dress as well. The more I see of it, the more I like it.
 
The best during this year ball: inviting Lalla Joumana. I don't know this royal :blush:, but it is so great to see some royal at the ball. I don't recall any royal people at Rose Ball.
Awesome to see all Casiraghi siblings. Tatiana and Andrea seem almost attached recently. I mean they are together everywhere, maybe wedding soon?
Charlotte looked wonderful, dress nice.I saw this dress on some fashion model, and Charlotte looks much better in it :)But the best dressed was Beatrice. Everything she was wearing was perfect: dress, shoes, her hairdo.:flowers: BTW, did she make her hair dark? Melanie disappointed me this year. She usually dress nicely, but this time her black dress does not flatter her and her hair seemed a mess.:ermm:
Caroline looked lovely, her dress was matching the occasion, the same her colorful jewelery. I like her short hair. On the other hand she could be more regal. She looked really nice, but I know she could do better.
I was really hoping that Albert will not bring Charlene this year. It was always against protocol to bring the woman who is not even a fiance to official occasion. But this time, when they invited Moroccan royal, it is even worse.
Charlene dress was overall was nice, the same her jewelery. But it was not dress for her, she lacks feminine body, so she looked bad in it. The dress was too revealing. Summing up, Charlene did not look good, and the dress was wearing her.:whistling:
 
The ladies look stunning don't they?! They have all gone for something a little different this year, it seems. LOVE Charlotte's outfit, she has matured in the face and looks stunning!:flowers:
 
I really like Tatiana's look.
Caroline looks radiant.
Charlotte looks great in the light colors, but I don't like her hair.
 
I love Charlotte's look, understated glam through and through.

Andrea's looking good, love that his tux fits him well, which isn't often. Anyone solved the mystery of his shoes? Doesnt he wear those everytime he attends the ball?

Beatrice was dead on perfect!!!!! she was the " belle"
Caroline looked very nice
Charolette to me the dress didnt suit her- a nice dresss over all
Charlene dress very sexy too sexy if you are escorting a head of state to a official function especially when there was visiting royalty. In my opionion she was trying too hard... An escort to a reigning prince should be demure especially if u are a princess consort applicant. Why do Charlene walk in with the prince and his heir????????
Melanie need some fashion help

The Morrocan princess probably didnt see so much skin in her entire life:lol: I loved her gown as well
 
I liked Charlene's look the best. Charlotte's dress while unflattering would have looked much better had the straps been made from the same fabric or a different color they aren't working together. The same applies for Caroline's dress, while I like the style the color of the straps distracts from the over all look.
 
Charlene, Charlotte, Tatiana, they all looked more self confident this year.
Beatrice's dress must have been purchased in Morocco, since her maternal grand mother countess Marta Marzotto spends a great part of the year in Marrakesh, where she owns a palace. However it looks great on her.
I do not like Caroline's dress instead: it makes her look old.
I didn't expect to see Simona Ventura at the ball. Perhaps after getting Ivana Trump to go to the "island" (sort of a "Survivor" with celebrities), she will manage to get Charlene over there too...;):)
