The 23rd Annual Russian Summer ball was held on the 30th of June at Carlton House Terrace, London. It was founded in 1996 by Alexander Ivanovich Suscenko.
The Russian Summer Ball is one of the most glamorous events of the London Season, an amazing evening of music, dance, tradition and wonderful company.
Every year a charity is selected, profits from this year’s ball will go toward the Russian Orthodox Lesna Monastery in Normandy, France and to raise funds to build a memorial in London to commemorate the centenary of the martyrdom of Russian Imperial Martyrs.
