The Horse & Carriage carrying ballerina Mila Schmidt
The white-tie elegance and glamour of the annual Viennese Opera Ball returned last Friday evening (February 4th) to the Waldorf=Astoria Grand Ballroom with its guestlist of diplomats, dignitaries and debutantes.
Metropolitan Opera Artists, Color Guard and Cadet Escorts from U.S. Military Academy at West Point, and a touch of the titled and the royal in the persons of HIH Grand Duchess Arianna and Gabrielle Baroness von Langendorff, plus a great charity (Lauren Bush’s FEED Foundation) made the event complete.
Top these elements with the fairytale beauty of two (real) white horses drawing an antique surrey carrying a beautiful ballerina into the middle of the Ballroom floor, and you’ve got the Viennese Opera Ball.
