Masquerade Dresses for Halloween

From the 12th century onwards, masquerade balls were popular among the nobility of Europe, and that popularity continues today. 


At a traditional masquerade ball, the lady wears a beautiful period dress and a Venetian mask to cover her eyes. 


Somehow or other wearing this costume hid her identity, allowing her to flirt outrageously with member of the opposite sex.


We girls don't need an excuse to do that nowadays, but in the olden days this was the form.


For Halloween, have a look at the beautiful masquerade dresses that are available.
