The Ball of Dreams

The velvet sky sparkles with winter’s first stars, the air is crisp with anticipation, and the world glows in a sea of gold. A grand ballroom welcomes all, illuminated by the soft glow of candlelight. Chandeliers shimmer like jewels, casting their light upon a sea of elegantly dressed guests. Laughter fills the air, glasses clink, and music swirls like magic throughout the room. This is no ordinary ball; it is a night when fantasies come true, where time pauses for one enchanted evening, and anything feels possible.

Dior’s Holiday Makeup Collection 2024 serves as a tribute to festive beauty. Infused with wintry sophistication, the collection features shades of soft golds, icy silvers, and deep, luxurious reds — tones that evoke both the cozy warmth of Christmas and the bold opulence of New Year’s Eve. At the heart of the collection lies the much-anticipated Diorific Vernis, a set of shimmering nail lacquers that adorn fingertips with just the right amount of sparkle. Whether one is holding a champagne flute or unwrapping a Dior gift box, hands will look nothing short of spectacular.

The pièce de résistance? Rouge Dior Forever Liquid Sequin, presented in limited-edition packaging. Draped in glimmering gold, this lipstick invites all to shine bright throughout the holidays, offering a satin or matte finish that perfectly complements any festive ensemble. Paired with the dreamy 5 Couleurs Couture palette, which combines sultry smoky shades with festive frost and gilded accents, the collection ensures a striking look from the moment one enters a holiday party until the stroke of midnight on New Year’s Eve.

Adding an extra touch of magic, Dior weaves subtle “snow” effects into the makeup, echoing the artificial snow that blankets the studio. The luminous highlighters provide a frosted glow, creating the illusion of freshly fallen snowflakes dusting the skin. This is not just makeup — it’s a mood, a story, a pure holiday fantasy.

Draped in a vision of Dior, Lisas’ sparkles like a celestial star in the night sky. “The ideal ball is a night where reality feels like a fairytale,” she shares, her smile radiant. “It’s a moment when beauty and elegance become an expression of joy and celebration. You feel as though you’re part of something truly magical, a night that lingers in memory long after the final waltz.”

Born and raised in Bern, Switzerland, with roots in Hong Kong and China, Lisa’s adventurous spirit guided her from a career in healthcare to the international world of fashion. After earning her degree as a Registered Nurse, she took a leap of faith and moved to London to pursue her true passion. Seven years later, Lisa is a full-time model represented by Elite Model Management, working with agencies across the globe.

For Morgan Mesple, the ball is a gateway to a world where charm and style take center stage. “It is all about the atmosphere — the way everything glimmers, how everyone glows, not just from the lights but from within,” he muses. “The perfect ball is a space where beauty and confidence collide, surrounded by the luxury of the moment.”

Morgan, a Swiss entrepreneur, DJ, and producer, has crafted a career at the intersection of music and fashion. As part of the Zurich-based DJ collective 2M, he has held residencies at some of Europe’s most iconic clubs, from Zukunft in Zurich to Folklor in Lausanne and Club Malasaña in Madrid. Along with co-founding the event and record label RESONICA, his creative energy extends into the fashion world, where he serves as a brand ambassador and model for luxury brands. As the co-founder of the fashion label NOLOGOstudio, Morgan continues to bring innovation and style to every project he touches.

As the festivities continue, snowflakes drift gently outside the windows, while inside, the glow of Dior’s Holiday Collection elevates the evening into something extraordinary — a fantasy brought to life, where elegance is the dress code and dreams know no bounds. This holiday season, with Parfums Christian Dior by your side, the world transforms into a ballroom.

Step in, and let the magic begin.
