A masquerade ball is a formal event where participants wear masks and costumes.
It originated in the 15th century as part of Carnival celebrations, particularly in Italy and France. These events were known for their elaborate costumes and masks, which allowed attendees to conceal their identities and social statuses, fostering a sense of mystery and freedom.
Masks were often made from materials like black velvet and lace, symbolizing elegance and sophistication.
