What is the Rothschild Surrealist Ball and what on earth do you wear to our Halloween party?
Inspired by the legendary Surrealist Ball hosted by Marie-Hélène de Rothschild at Château de Ferrières in 1972, this is a world where fashion meets fantasy, art defies reality, and the dress code is an invitation to let your imagination run wild.
Think surrealist masterpieces brought to life: theatrical silhouettes, sculptural headpieces, dreamlike details, unexpected proportions and beautifully bizarre accessories. Think Salvador Dalí meets high fashion, with a touch of aristocratic eccentricity.
Forget playing it safe. Embrace the extraordinary. A statement mask, a gorgeous ball gown, a sculptural suit, surreal accessories or an unexpected twist on classic evening wear, the key is to make the familiar feel fantastical.
The golden rule? Dress as though you’ve stepped straight into a dream.
