Eugenia de Borbón17 years old, is one of the young people who will participate in the Paris Debutante Ball this 2024. This event, which will take place on November 30 at the majestic Shangri-La hotel, located in front of the Eiffel Tower, brings together 20 cosmopolitan young people between 16 and 21 years old in the French capital who are presented in society with their haute couture dresses
A very special event that Eugenia de Borbón prepares with desire and enthusiasm, as her mother has confessed, Margarita Vargas, on his usual visit to the Nuevo Futuro flea market where he collaborates on a stand. “She is very happy. Her father did it many years ago and she was excited about it. If she is happy, so am I.” A few words that show that Luis Alfonso de Borbón is also involved with the initiative. Likewise, the Duchess of Anjou has expressed her nostalgia for the rapid passage of time. “He’s super old, really. It makes me sad that it grows so fast. But well, I don’t know when it grew, but very well.”
Although there are still many details that are unknown about this coming out of Eugenia, how the identity of the cavalier who will accompany her, we do know the brand she will wear on her big day: Carolina Herrera. As shown in the public profiles of the Debutante Ball, the young woman, whose smile is reminiscent of her mother’s, has already tried on some designs, specifically a yellow dress with a huge purple bow at the waist and another fuchsia model from sweetheart neckline and embroidered 3D flowers.
It should be noted that fashion is one of Eugenia’s great passions, who is also an experienced horsewoman. “She sewed, she made her first steps,” Margarita Vargas said in a interview with HELLO! in 2023. A childhood hobby that, little by little, has been taking hold and that sneaks into their professional future plans. “He told me, mom, I have to study something that has to do with fashion.”
Eugenia’s little brothers, twins Luis and Alfonso (14), and little Enrique (5), are also a source of pride for their parents. “We are very happy with our children, they are wonderful. They have turned out, so far, very responsible and good. The truth is that they are very happy. Let’s hope they don’t get in our way,” Luis Alfonso explained in the pages of ¡HOLA!
This is the Debutante Ball
The Debutante Ball is a tradition that dates back to the 18th century when English ladies were presented in society before the Queen. A custom that was reinvented in 1994 in the French capital. Currently, its goal is to celebrate “excellence, women’s empowerment and harmony between debutantes and gentlemen around the world.” Likewise, in each edition funds are raised for a charitable cause.
