Scenes From Inside the 2024 International Debutante Ball
On Saturday night, 31 women made their society debut at the Plaza Hotel during the 70th annual International Debutante Ball.
The traditional white-tie dinner and dance, held Dec. 28, remains one of the most prestigious stages for the young scions of worldwide cultural and political leaders. Notable attendees since the first ball was held in 1954 include several daughters and granddaughters of U.S. presidents, including Patricia Nixon, Julie Nixon Eisenhower, and Ashley Walker Bush, as well as Cornelia Guest and numerous princesses.
