Sister of actor Ananya Pandey, Raisa PandeyRecently represented India and made his debut at Le Bal des Débutantes 2024 (also known as Le Bal). She followed in the footsteps of her elder sister who had earlier made her debut at the prestigious high society event at the age of 19. Raisa stunned in a pastel blue and silver Elie Saab gown as she made her debut.
Dressed in a stunning pastel blue and silver gown by renowned designer Elie Saab, Raisa exuded grace and sophistication. Full-length gowns capture the essence of modernity and tradition. With its intricate patterns, a symphony of deep burgundies, faded golds, and midnight blues, the gown was the perfect choice for the occasion.
The off-shoulder gown had a fitted bodice that mimicked the corset of the Victorian era. It gradually changed from a bodice to a floor-sweeping skirt and came with a long train. With a sweetheart style neckline, the gown was embellished with floral embroidery. Risa continued, “Le Ball is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, I am grateful for the opportunity to represent India here. I am very proud to support ARCFA and Maria Friari Children’s Hospital. Both are dedicated to providing life-saving care for children with heart defects. Le Ball is more than a celebration of change, knowing that 100% of the funds raised go directly to the cause These reasons go straight to what makes this event truly special is.”
Talking about her experience at Le Ball, Raisa said, “Dancing with my father was a moment I will never forget. It was surreal to be a part of such a beautiful tradition, which is not only shared globally, but also by me. But also represents my Indian roots.” The father-daughter waltz is one of Le Ball’s highlights. Raisa hangs out with Chunky Pandey and chooses him. Black tuxedo with gold applique details.
Le Ball is an invitation-only event where founder, Ophélie Renouard, hand-picks debutantes from across the fields of entertainment, arts, culture, business and royalty. Talking about picking Raisa, Opheley said, “What makes Raisa special is how seamlessly she bridges cultures. She is proud of her Indian heritage but global. Mindful, humble, hard-working, and eager to make a difference.”
