The theme of the 63rd Rose Ball, to be held on Saturday, March 18, at the Salle des Etoiles at the Sporting Monte-Carlo, will be the Viennese Secession.
HSH The Princess of Hanover, President of the Princess Grace Foundation, asked her friend Karl Lagerfeld to cooperate on designing the setting, and together they have composed an Art Nouveau world, celebrating one of the most elegant artistic and architectural movements of recent history.
This revolutionary, clear and uncluttered style flourished in Austria and then throughout Europe between 1892 and 1906. Among its most illustrious proponents was the artist Gustav Klimt. Passing through the hall, guests will be transported into a universe evoking the entrance of the Wiener Werkstätte exhibition, which for the first time presented its work to the public in October 1904.
The Viennese Secession Rose Ball promises a rich musical programme, and the beneficiary of the evening will be the Princess Grace Foundation. Tickets for the black tie event are €800 per person and reservations can be made at B.fabry@sbm.mc.
