In Monaco, the news of a new postponement of the Rose Ball fell.
As predicted and for the third consecutive year, the famous meeting of Monegasque society will not take place in the spring. The organizer announced on Friday a postponement from March 19 to July 8 for “health reasons.” A news that will not delight the president of this prestigious evening, who has become very close to her brother during the previous year, Princess Caroline of Monaco. Indeed, the Sea Bathing Society explained in a statement that: “As soon as the sanitary conditions allow it, the Bal de la Rose will again mark the opening of the season in Monaco.“
After two cancellations in 2020 and 2021 and 3 years after paying tribute to the Kaiser of fashion, Karl Lagerfeld, the new artistic director Christian Louboutin will stage an event around the theme “the 20s, the return“. The famous shoemaker will be in the spotlight the next day for the exhibition The Exhibition(nist) which will be held until August 28 at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco.
The postponement will allow Princess Charlene to continue her recovery in serenity, she who has been in a specialized center in Switzerland for almost 3 months. Charlène had already been absent for several months in South Africa during 2021, before continuing her recovery in November in Switzerland to treat ENT problems and drug addiction. The former swimmer had been able to see her two twins again on the occasion of Christmas.
The evening, which will welcome some 800 guests who have bought their place, created in 1954 to launch the season of festivities in the Principality of Monaco, is above all a charity event which will donate its profits to the foundation Princess Grace, chaired by Princess Caroline, which helps disabled children.
