Rose Ball, Monaco: 2005 - 2024

[Tosca]

Well, according to "dagospia.com" Princess Stephanie didn't attend this year's Ball, because of disagreements between her and her sister.
Caroline wouldn't look favourably on her being on good terms with her ex-husband Daniel Ducruet. But as compensation, Steph would get along so well with prince Albert, that she would move to the Palace.

princess caroline is a classic beauty and her dress is stunning & her children is just as handsome & pretty
life must be nice for the beautiful people in the world

I'm not sure but the girl with blond hair (I think she's not Tina Flohr if Tina was the one skiing with Pierre) might be the daughter of Repossi, the jewel maker? Many sources including her mother said she was there with the Casiraghi, so it might be her....Any confirmation by someone in the know?

I think Caroline looked radiant. Although I do wish she would wear a color other than black.

I know people have mentioned on this board that they didn't like Charlotte's dress, but I loved it. Although I didn't really care for her black jacket she had on when she came in or her black shoes paired with the color of her dress, Champaign or Pink?

Andrea looked absolutely handsome and so did Pierre except for the fact that is pants are shinny.

In the second photo is that really Felix...??

 

[Grace]

No he isn't.

 

[Beatrice]

Thanks Grace

Charlotte's dress is alright, but is somewhat overdone with all the feathers. She could also lose the little black jacket.

Is it a CHANEL?

 

[tigerlilly2005]

yes it is.

I have a question. I browsed again through the thread and there are a lot people saying that Félix was present at the ball. Though, I never saw a picture of him. Besides Pierre and Andrea, there were, if I didn’t see wrong, three other guys belonging to the young group, who arrived before the older guests. You can see them on this picture : http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/408133-post154.html In my opinion, these guys don’t look like Félix. So my question : Was Félix just not present or did I miss the picture of him ? If so, can anyone put a link, please ? Thanks in advance.

 

[Grace]

I think you can see Felix in these pics; I'm sorry I didn't have better ones, but I saw him on video, so I'm pretty sure he was there...

yeah thats him! I wonder why he wasn't seen next to Charlotte!

 

[enchantednights]

yeah thats him! I wonder why he wasn't seen next to Charlotte!

i think the couples were supposed ot be seated across from one another or something.

oh no no no, I meant like Felix wasn't seen next to Charlotte that whole night it seemed! I mean here's this picture (I know it's really small) and he's like kinda far from her! I don't think I saw any picture that he was there near her or even with her.

(in case you don't know he's the one behind those two girls at the end, on the left)

maybe he's shy and yeah i played i spy and put felix as the object i had to find kinda like where's waldo?

 

[auroraDaniel]

or is it because somebody told felix not to stick with charlotte the whole night for bad publicity? i know this sounds strange, but maybe because charlotte is young and popular and what not, somebody, (maybe her mother?), told them not to be seen together too much, or not caught by the camera...maybe they do not want people to create another nasty rumour about her (remember the pregnat rumour?)....if her mother told charlotte and felix about this, it is just a defence mechanism...so that charlotte would not be hurt by stories...just motherly opinion of mine

 

[Coquine]

Thanks for the answer ! So, at table they seated across eachother but on the dancefloor we didn't see them together. Maybe Félix has two left feet. It could be possible, I know a lot of boys who don't like to dance !

charlotte is drop dead beautiful.

 

[soCal girl]

Charlotte looked stunning but the hair disappoints me. It was very Victoria-esque for such a formal occasion!

[paola0731]

I really love how Caro was that day!!

 

[Daytona]

If i were escorting my date i wouldnt let her alone or far from me.I would also dance with her even if i didnt know how to.I would wait her to dance with her brothers,mother,uncle etc and then i would do whatever she wanted me to do.I suppose most people know that Felix is dating her and photographers would picture them both even if they were sitting apart.That boy in those pictures doesnt bear resablance to Felix,i believe Felix is taller and blonde.
Stefanie isnt seen in any pictures.I suppose she is at summer holidays.
