Margot Fonteyn. Bal de la Mer. Monte Carlo 1958

Ballerina Margot Fonteyn descends a staircase at the Bal de la Mer in Monte Carlo, 1958. Her elaborate ensemble features a voluminous, dark taffeta coat over a strapless gown, its lacy petticoat visible at the hem. Her short, coiffed hair is adorned with a sparkling headband, complemented by an ornate choker and a white fan held in her hand. Flanked by other guests, she is observed by men in formal wear from the landing above in a candid moment of high-society glamour.
