The 21-year-old student, who is majoring in communications and keeps her dating life mostly under wraps, honoured her grandmother with a chic polka dot gown

Carolina Lansing, the granddaughter of the Venezuelan‑born fashion designer Carolina Herrera, made her debut into high society at this year’s Le Bal des Débutantes, held at the Shangri-La Paris hotel on November 29.

Since 1992, the exclusive invite-only event has carried on the 18th-century English tradition of the debutante ball, in which young ladies of influential backgrounds were introduced into society. Previous young women who have made their debut at Le Bal include Lady Amelia Windsor, Lily Collins, Lady Tatiana Mountbatten, Apple Martin, Lori Harvey and more.
