Debutantes Celebrate Their Wealth, Beauty and Connections



Globally known: The tradition sees mostly debutantes from the United States, but young women debut themselves from countries all over the world.

[From article]
The backdrop is one of New York City's most luxurious and revered hotels, the players are the well-heeled scions of the world's elite families, and at stake are their first impressions on a world accustomed to only the greatest of poise: these are the living dolls of the International Debutante Ball.
The participating young women are the crème de la crème, the next generation of the international elite who present themselves to the sons and families of ambassadors, world leaders, and giants of industry.
They are college-aged young women from some of America's and some of the world's most prestigious universities putting their most congenial faces forward in the Waldorf-Astoria's grand ballroom as they meet and greet with future husbands, friends, colleagues and business and charity contacts.
