Venetian Reflections
Special guests of the evening will be the lead actors in the TV series Outlander, Sam Heughan and Caitriona Balfe
The ball's theme, Venetian Reflections®, is inspired by the play of mirrors and light, water and glass reflecting the essence and elegance of the Serenissima. The idea is to evoke the mystery and sophistication of the masks, golden reflections and sumptuous costumes of the Venetian Carnival. Guests will be encouraged to wear elaborate masks and costumes in the style of the 18th century, with gilded, baroque and velvety embroidery, a symbol of nobility and tradition.
The costumes are created by the great master Stefano Nicolao, who designed this dance. This year, the grand ball will be dedicated to the great Giacomo Casanova that's why the title of the dance will be Venetian Reflections® Casanova.
There will be numerous celebrities, but the real stars will be you, who will participate in this wonderful ball. We are waiting for you to experience an unforgettable evening with us, going back in time to the Venice of the 18th century.
