On February 24, 2024, the second edition of Courchevel's charity gala was held for the benefit of The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation and the children of the Courchevel Sports Club. The charity event was presided over by Prince Albert and Sir James Arthur Ratcliffe, and took place in the presence of Princess Charlene at the Ineos Club House in Courchevel.
More than 200 guests, including Prince Alexander of Liechtenstein and his wife Princess Astrid Barbara, attended the charity gala in the Crystal Globe Room. The donations collected will be used for the field actions of The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation and the sports club of Courchevel.
Gone are the times, when gentlemen wore ties... e.
ردحذفPrince Albert doesn't look attractive ; no tie and the rest isn't any better. Come on Prince Albert. Congrats to Charlene, but again a different hair color !?
حذفWell, prince Alexander wears a Trachtenjacke, interesting for the occasion, but not bad.
حذفanna e.
I think it's totally fine for men to not wear ties. It's a phallic symbol. They're usually not straight even though there are pins/clips to hold them in place. Must be uncomfortable at times to wear a tie. Prince Daniel's knots are pathetic. I think it looks fine & it must be a liberating feeling to not have to wear one. |Melanie|
حذفPeople who are related to sport clubs, sport gala's, sports in general often prefer not to wear a tie when meeting on events. Apparently the dress code was no tie, because nobody wears one.
حذفJa Trachtenjacken sind auch als Abendkleidung akzeptiert. Eine nette Abwechslung, mal über Herrenmode zu plaudern...

Melanie, really? The symbol-thinking is so oldfashionend (in a lovely way)....
حذفits disrespectful to the ladies who did their best to look good

حذفApparently Prince Daniel is becoming the new victim of this kind of people who always find to say something negative, about the same royals on this blog. As he accompanies CP Victoria very often, he risks more than other male royals the chance to receive negative criticism.
Wow! another win For Princess Charlene. She dresses like I would think someone would dress in Monaco with all its glamour! FITZHUGH
ردحذفVery elegant!
ردحذفQu'elle est superbe vêtue de noir contrairement aux dires de certaines très subtilement maquillée ; j'ai agrandi la première photo afin de mieux voir ses boucles d'oreilles ; est-ce que ce sont des diamants montés sur or ?!
ردحذفPS Concernant le Bal de la Rose sur le thème "Disco" qui aura lieu fin mars, j'ose espérer la voir présente dans une tenue époustouflante !
Vous savez bien qu’elle ne sera pas au bal. C’est la princesse Caroline qui "officiera". Charlène n’est jamais présente à ce bal.
حذفOuffff … in this case, noting the venue (French ski resort Courchavel with its own high altitude airport), all I can reflect on is the climate toll of 200 guests flying in by helicopter and private jet for the evening. For “charity”? On one hand the very rich may donate well, but on the other hand this type of event is so luxurious and so expensive, I wonder what it’s really worth. - AnneLise
ردحذفYes I agree
حذفSo what has this to do with fashion?
حذفI understand your point!
حذفLetztlich reflektiert dies den Lebensstil sehr privilegierter Menschen. Immerhin nutzen sie ihren Einfluß, um Gutes zu tun und dies ist doch löblich.
حذفSabsi
Hm, Sabsi, das Gute tun sie wohl vor allem dem eigenen Image.
حذفAber dieser Blog hier huldigt dem Hedonismus, und dabei wollen wir es auch belassen.
Coralie, in your answer to sabi, is the "wir" pluralis majestatis? ;)
حذفHa ha ha, Anonymous 16:09, I'd say"to whom it may concern" (If this expression is still used.)
حذف@coralie, careful with hedonism, when not only speaking of epicur...
حذفI like Princess Charlene's outfit. The same fabric (black tweed with a kind of silver incorporated fiber ?) has been used as for the jacket of Princess Sofia of Sweden at the ceremony in the castle's chapel.
ردحذفCharlene looks marvelous! Her cocktail outfit is beautiful. Always wonderful to see her!
ردحذفJanet
Charlene is just beautiful and her look is joyful. Her outfit suits her fine.
ردحذفAlways spot on. Elegance in the House of Grimaldi. css
ردحذفPss Charlene looks fabulous, a very stylish and chic outfit.
ردحذفCharlene toujours très chic sans bling bling. Non depuis longtemps Charlene n est pas présente au bal de la Rose c est Caroline avec ses enfants.
ردحذفFroufrou
Though I would have preferred a show stopping dress of the same material. I think, on balance, I like this outfit. Princess Charlene looks great.
ردحذفLe chic,l'élégance dans la simplicité.
ردحذفEXACTEMENT.
حذفIt seems that this was a No-tie event :-)))
ردحذفPss Charlene really has been on point of late!Her hair is gorgeous,and really suits her.I love her cocktail suit,with the silver thread running through it,turns it from day suit to cocktail hour.
ردحذفDoes anyone know who the designer is?
ردحذفDetails from another royal site ……..
حذفIt’s a semi transparent robe by Swiss designer Albert Kriemler from the ultra-luxe label AKRIS.
Thank you.
حذفI have noticed in Monaco the royals are not given a bouquet of flowers like they do in other countries unless they did so earlier! FITZHUGH
ردحذفThey are not in Monaco but in the French Ski resort Courchevel. It is a meeting of all the rich and famous, why would they give bouquets of flowers to each other ? In other countries it is in general a little boy or a little girl who is offering a bouquet when a queen or princess is visiting a school, charity work, a gala when a son or daughter of the organizing committee is offering a bouquet, etc...
ردحذفRe-read my comment and you will see that I did not specify the event that was held in Courchevel was the only time I have noticed flowers were not given. There have been other events that flowers were not given. Although I am sure there were many rich and famous people. There were also royals there. They were Prince Alexander and his wife Princess Astrid Barbara of Lichtenstein and the Gala was to benefit The Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation as well as the ski resort. So giving flowers would have been just fine. As for children giving flowers adults also give flowers. Have you ever noticed when the Danish Royal family attend the opening of Parliament it is adults that give the royal ladies flowers. Anonymous I thought you might want to know the correct facts since what you wrote was incorrect! FITZHUGH
حذفFitzhugh, so opinionated?
حذفWhat I wrote was not incorrect. I wrote "in other countries it is in GENERAL a little boy or girl who is offering a bouquet". I did not say it is ALWAYS a child that is offering flowers. I know that sometimes young ladies are offering flowers to a queen too and in some countries the queen receives more flowers than in other. These are facts too.
ردحذفLess is more - Bravo!
