The Monte-Carlo Gala For The Global Ocean 2018 is happening right now at the Opera Garnier in Monaco with Prince Albert and Princess Charlene in attendance. The inaugural ball took place last year and since then the gala has been one of the most important events in Monaco. Last year, Leonardo Dicaprio was the star of the show, this year it’s Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.


For the occasion, Princess Charlene of Monaco chose Oscar de la Renta. The gorgeous navy caftan dress features an illusion shoulder with sparkling silver sequins and a caped back. I can’t wait for videos to see this gown flowing.

The gown is currently available on the ODLR website for $3,690.

The embroidery on this gown takes it from an ordinary cape dress to an amazing frock. and I think the illusion shoulder highlights Princess Charlene’s shoulders in the most feminine way. Char rarely ever wears dresses that are not form fitting, and as amazing her body looks in them, I’m glad she’s trying something new, and boy, did she knock out of the park this time!
For the accessories, Charlene stuck to her master plan of one big gun, is this case, it’s a gigantic Graff Diamonds cuff. I’m in love!
I’ll update this post with close-ups and videos once they become available. But so far, the makeup looks simple with a pink lip and the hair swept up.
What do you think of this look?
