  • The opulence of a masked ball in the Italian city of Venice during Carnival must be seen to be believed. Correspondent Seth Doane joins revelers, including a couple who traveled from Florida to attend a lavish costume party, "Il Ballo del Doge"; and talks with designer Antonia Sautter, who has created ever-more extravagant costumes for this Venetian tradition dating back centuries.

    Even though I know that attending a party like that won't be cheap, I'd still like to attend at least once. Perhaps even be a part of the entertainment. :)

    I don't know, looks like a cruise ship show. "Let the sun shine in", really? How about period music to make it more autentico.

      Around end of Jan 2009, I was in Venice few days before the carnival began, but the party started, people were dressed up in costume walking on the streets. You can rent traditional costumes at many shops. I wondered into a jewelry boutique, the owner said he was going to the party and gave me a poster for the party, but it's too expensive for me.
      I went to the free event, a wine fountain ⛲ people packed up around the square, light snow that night Yes, I got a small cup of wine from the wine ⛲. I stood next to the police for security, my passport, money were inside my shirt. The next morning, there was the grand parade of different decorative gondola, but I sleep in and missed it.
      I have been to Venice 3 times, it's better than Disney because the city existed for centuries and is still real prices are high during the carnival, which was why I visited few days before the carnival began. It's easy to nevegate Venice, signs everywhere pointing to the popular attractions, and walking is the best way to see everything, bridges after bridges.😊

    I think it wonderful that people still want go to balls but I’m a little sad 😔 that I didn’t see anybody dance on the dance floor especially a waltz would have been nice 👍

    Venice is a beautiful city (some say the most beautiful). I know it for its spectacular churches and great art. These masked balls however always offend me because they are elitist entertainment reserved for those who can afford to revel in glitz. Let's not kid ourselves, Antonia Sautter. The people who contribute to create them are just paid employees.

    • @florinest
      @florinest Рік тому +5

      Agreed. The actual city of Venice is spectacular -- this ball isn't.

      If they enjoy their work and what they create, that may be enough. I'm an introvert. I would probably do the work without being paid, but I wouldn't want to go to the ball. Venice is gorgeous! I went there long ago, backpacking, in the summer after a college semester. I'd love to go back!

    Ewww. Looks like Vegas meets Venice. Surely there are still some genuine costume parties? Of course, you can't buy a ticket to those, and the hosts aren't inviting reporters in to cover them.

      This is the kind of thing that sustained bad past times in Europe. Yes, there were famines in places like France in the past. Italians love beauty. They're fantastic at creating it. It's something to appreciate. It's part of what western civilization is about.
