In the garden for the first time, this year is the lady of the manor dressed in her lightest floral gown and suede gloves.

​

Permission has been given by the head gardener to cut the peonies for the first ball of the season.

​

There is nothing like the fragrance of freshly cut peonies in bloom filling the air and mixing with the sensuality of, soft blush suede.

 

Luxurious and seductive is the theme for this year's opening ball.
