Two years ago, Carine Roitfeld threw a masquerade ball to celebrate French Vogue’s 90th anniversary and Anna Dello Russo stole the show in a custom made Pucci dress and Gareth Pugh headdress. The gorgeous photos above were shot by Tommy Ton as Anna dressed for the evening in her suite at the Ritz.
This is the type of party I’d like to attend on Halloween. An elegant affair that requires a couture costume. I’d opt for a less cumbersome mask, but only because I’m confident I’d take down other guests with my clumsiness!
Are you dressing up this year? As someone with an incredibly lame track record for costumes, I’d love to know what you’re masquerading as!









Outrageous photos! Beyond glamour! I don’t think my hawollwern will be like that but it sure would be fun!
AAAAhmazing!!! What an incredible headpiece…of course that dress is beautiful too….and her figure also helps!
This party was the downfall of Carine Roitfeld. Thankfully, now Anna is dressing more like a fashionista than a cartoon.
Gisele stole the show though.

She’s definitely a character! Gisele’s ensemble was much more tame and very beautiful.
You’ve got to be kidding me! This is the most amazing mask I’ve ever seen. And the dress…please!! It’s beyond gorgeous. While I’m not dressing up, my daughter will be donning some feathers of her own as an owl-but I think we’ll forego the couture dress.
Insane!! That dress is gorgeous!! I’d love to do a masquerade party sometime..it would be so much better than the typical Halloween costumes! Much more my style. My track record is not so good either. ha.
Now this is my kind of halloween dress up! Thank you!
