Oh my God! They are like the bad sisters of Cinderella, but much worst than the "other two".... (Beatrice & Eugenie of York)
They look like in a Carnaval party with "Horror" as theme 
In the evening dresses they were better.

extras from Italian nobility in the movie Ben-Hur (1959)
A number of real nobility representatives were used in Ben-Hur as extras:
from Wikipedia:
One of the most sumptuous sets was the villa of Quintus Arrius, which included 45 working fountains and 8.9 miles (14.3 km) of pipes. [109] Extras during the party were wealthy citizens of Rome, who wanted to portray their ancient selves. [116] Among them were Baroness Lillian de Balzo (Hungary), Princess Carmen de Hohenlohe (Spain), Prince Cristian Hohenlohe (Spain), Countess Nona Medici (Italy), Count Marigliano del Monte (Italy), Count Santiago Oneto (Spain), Count Mario Rivoltella (Italy), Prince Emanuele Ruspoli (Italy), Prince Raimondo Ruspoli (Italy), and Princess Irina Wassilchikoff (Russia)
Are there any people here who can recognize these extras = who can recognize people from the Italian nobility from the 50s? The performers are clearly visible in screen captures from the movie.
I'd be happy to send some photos

I don't know if I am posting in the correct place, so please forgive me. Years ago there were rumors (just that - only rumors) that Prince William was interested in Italy's Princess Scilla Ruffo di Calabria. At the time there were several pictures of her and she was very pretty, feminine, and classy. I have recently seen pictures of her and I can't believe the difference. She apparently works as a DJ. She looks tough and unkempt. I can't believe she is a royal. I know I sound mean, but she must be in her late 20s and instead of maturing, she looks like she's trying to be a teenager again.
