The influence of the Ballets Russes and their groundbreaking performance of "Sheherazade" during this period is unmistakable.

The guests, with their expressive faces and animated conversations, seem lost in the moment, fully immersed in the magic of the evening. The oriental theme, with its exotic allure and rich history, added an air of intrigue and excitement to the party. This photograph is a testament to the power of art and creativity to transport us to another world, even for just one night. The memory of this enchanting party, with its lavish costumes and exotic theme, lives on through this image.
