The recommended attire for La Maschera: The Bridgerton Ball is Modern Regency. Much like the tv show’s costume design team, we encourage our guests to take creative liberties with their costumes. If you want to channel your inner Daphne, come in a traditional regency gown. Do you want to be a modern fashionista? Feel free to break barriers and mix femme and masc design concepts. You can even wear a modern evening gown, but accessorize with some gloves and a tiara! Regardless of what you wear, Queen Charlotte will be paying close attention to decide her Diamond of the Season!
