Siobhan FentonSt Hilda’s Fin De Siècle ball kicked off the Trinity ball season is style this weekend. Under the twinkling lights of the marquees stood a sea of pastel dresses and embellishment. Crisp white dresses were a popular choice that looked anything but bridal when teamed with directional accessories and bold makeup.
