What to Wear at the Masquerade Ball

Treasure Island Hotel and Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada

Photographed through the glass showcase at the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas,
the photographer was very careful, to get the only proper angle available, not using a flash,
to keep reflections and glare to a minimum, saturating the colors the maximum and exposure as
cool as a cucumber. The mannequin, pictured here, is wearing an outfit, make-up and hair style
that is considered to be the height of high fashion. Fashionable and tres chique.

What is a masquerade? It is a costume party at which masks are worn; a masked ball. Also called
masque; costume for such a party or ball; A disguise or false outward show; a pretense: a
masquerade of humility; An involved scheme; a charade. Examples: To wear a mask or disguise,
as at a masquerade: She masqueraded as a shepherd; To go about as if in disguise; have or put
on a deceptive appearance: The stowaway masqueraded as a crew member.

Simply gorgeous, the shadow DoF with dark background really help make this photo stand out. And with the beautiful colors to go with it, this photo is perfection. Excellent choice of angle too. Definitedly, vote!
