The Crillon Debutantes Ball is a contemporary version of a British tradition which began in the eighteenth century.
The new form raises money for two charities like Seleni, a centre for women's mental health, and Children of Asia, which aims to raise the enrolment of young girls from Southeast Asia into education.
It was originally a ceremony for eligible young women from aristocratic families to be presented in front of the Queen when they turned 18. It was a sign that a woman was ready to be betrothed, and an introduction to families of a similar social standing.
Le Bal's dress code requires girls to wear haute couture dresses.
