Angela Bassett'S Daughter Steals The Show At Paris' Glamorous Le Bal Des Débutantes - BABEOfficial 2025

Angela Bassett's Daughter Shines at Le Bal

This year's Le Bal des Débutantes was nothing short of spectacular, with a star-studded lineup of young debutantes gracing the event in stunning haute couture. Among them was Bronwyn Golden Vance, daughter of Hollywood icons Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance, making her debut at the illustrious affair. Held on Saturday, November 29, 2025, at the luxurious Shangri-La Paris hotel, this event is often likened to a Met Gala for the young elite.

Bronwyn's Memorable Night

Bronwyn, 19, dazzled in a princess-like gown crafted by French haute couture designer Stéphane Rolland. Capturing hearts, she shared a touching father-daughter dance with her dad, Courtney B. Vance, and chose her twin brother, Slater Vance, as her cavalier débutant for the evening. "It’s a moment to cherish friendships with women who have similar aspirations in life," she shared in an interview with Vogue, reflecting on the unique opportunity to connect with accomplished young women from around the globe.

“It's very rare that you can share such a beautiful night with accomplished young girls who are slowly reaching adulthood,” Bronwyn mused.

Carolina Herrera's Legacy Continues

Another highlight of the night was Carolina Lansing, granddaughter of the legendary fashion designer Carolina Herrera. Making a statement in a floor-length, strapless black and white polka dot gown by Wes Gordon, she paid homage to her grandmother’s iconic style. "We ended up paying homage to my grandmother's first runway collection," Carolina said, noting the nostalgic polka dots and elegant design.

Family Ties and Fashion Tributes

Carolina's mother, Patricia Lansing, shared glimpses of the evening’s elegance on social media, emphasizing the family’s deep connection to fashion history. Carolina's look was further complemented by a ribbon choker and an antique diamond and sapphire brooch, a touching tribute to her late grandfather.

Meet the Other Debutantes

The event also featured other notable debutantes, including Lady Araminta Spencer-Churchill, Eugénia of Hohenzollern, and Reagan Sacks, each bringing their unique flair to the evening. From exquisite gowns by Natan and Schiaparelli to the charitable cause the event supports, Le Bal des Débutantes continues to be a night where tradition meets modern elegance.

Beyond the glitz, Le Bal remains committed to philanthropy, with this year's proceeds aiding the Association of Cardiology Research from Fetus to Adult in Paris and the Maria Fareri Children's Hospital in New York's Hudson Valley.
