IS A DAZZLING DISCO DIVA AS SHE LEADS THE GLITTERING GUESTS AT THE ANNUAL ROSE BALL
PHOEBE TATHAM
PRINCESS CHARLENE OF MONACO

With a sea of spinning disco balls and splashes of hot pink, there was no shortage of Saturday night fever when Monaco’s royals hosted the annual Rose Ball in Monte Carlo.

While previous themes have included Bollywood and the Roaring Twenties, this year, the prestigious Salle des Etoiles was transformed into a glittering, disco-inspired haven, complete with a rose arch and a mirror-clad passageway adorned with glowing TV sets from the 1970s.

Leading the glitz and glamour, Princess Charlene was the belle of the ball. In a silver and rose jumpsuit from Elie Saab – with a cinched-in waist, flared trousers and a plunging neckline – the former Olympic swimmer struck sartorial gold with her Abbainspired garment.

As well as her outfit, 46-year-old Charlene debuted a bold new hairdo – a chic feathered fringe à la 1920s – as she partied with her husband of 12 years, Prince Albert, who was debonair in an evening suit and red bow tie.

TIME TO SPARKLE

His elder sister Princess Caroline, meanwhile, was ready to strut her stuff in a long-sleeved black sequin gown from Lanvin, complete with a black sash around the waist and a sparkling floral brooch.
