BRATISLAVA – A glamorous charity gala, the Beauty Ball hosted by physician Alena Pallova, has quickly become a highly anticipated event on the Slovak social calendar. The event, held Friday evening at Bratislava Castle’s Winter Riding School, drew a crowd of Slovak and international celebrities, with fashion and philanthropy taking center stage.
The Beauty Ball distinguishes itself from typical social events by aiming to create a meaningful and aesthetically compelling experience. This year’s theme, “Metamorphosis,” was designed to be more than a stylistic choice, unfolding as a live spectacle for attendees.
Among the attendees was Slovak supermodel Adriana Sklenaříková, who traveled from France for the occasion. Breaking with traditional gala attire, Sklenaříková opted for a pantsuit and debuted a new, shorter hairstyle. She was accompanied by her partner, French singer and The Voice judge Marc Lavoine.
