Glamor and faux pas: This is how the Vienna Opera Ball 2025 shocked!

February 27, 2025 will go down in history as an evening full of glitz and glamor at the Vienna Opera Ball, which took place in the magnificent State Opera. Famous people from all over the world flocked to this event, which had the theme “Baroque Painting”. LEADERSNET reports that the gowns were not only admired but also discussed - particularly a fashion misstep by top model Candice Swanepoel, who appeared in a white dress traditionally reserved for debutantes. These stylistic faux pas got people talking, while other stars shone with their elegant appearances.

The evening's presenters set special accents with their outfits. Mirjam Weichselbraun chose a stunning couture bustier dress by JCH Juergen Christian Hoerl that embodied the essence of opera ball-ready elegance. Teresa Vogl surprised the guests with a floral couture gown by Eva Poleschinski, which enchanted with macrame lace and a swinging skirt. Another highlight was presenter Silvia Schneider, who appeared on stage for the first time and presented her self-designed golden dress, which earned her the title “the radiance of the night”. Her outfit, which took over 100 hours of work, was created together with couturier Liliya Semenova.

Unforgettable looks and creative designs

Other guests included notable personalities such as actress Larissa Marolt, who shone in a gorgeous red dress by Eva Poleschinski, and dentist Kristina Worseg, who presented a unique street art dress designed by Peruvian artist Luis Morales de la Cruz. The models showcased an exciting mix of styles and designs, from elegant, classic cuts to extravagant creations that reflected the colorful atmosphere of the ball. The Opera Ball remains not only a place of celebration, but also an arena for stylistic experiments and creative development, as [5min.at] reported.

With such exhilarating performances and creative designs, the Vienna Opera Ball remains a distinctive event that fascinates viewers both on television and in person. The highlights of the evening will be presented in a special broadcast on ORF 1 on February 28th, in which the most glamorous gowns and most impressive performances will be celebrated again. The evening event and its dazzling costumes will be remembered for a long time, and the next opera ball promises to once again offer a fireworks display of fashion and elegance.
