This collection of black-and-white photographs, published in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, captures the excitement and anticipation of the partygoers as they try on their elaborate costumes in the days leading up to the grand affair. The Happy New Year Ball was not just an extravaganza of fashion and fun; it was also an opportunity for the society elite to come together and support worthy causes. Proceeds from the event went towards the Middlesex Hospital and the British Empire Service League, two organizations dedicated to improving the lives of those in need. As the clock ticked closer to the new year, the air was filled with a sense of camaraderie and celebration. The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News captured the essence of the era, providing a window into a world of glamour, elegance, and generosity.
