Bronwyn Golden Vance, daughter of renowned actors Angela Bassett and Courtney B. Vance, is set to make a dazzling entrance into society at one of the most glamorous events worldwide. At 19, she will grace the prestigious Le Bal des Débutantes, joining a distinguished roster of celebrities and aristocrats who have historically attended this celebrated Parisian affair.
Since its inception in 1958 and its revitalization in 1992 by Ophélie Renouard, Le Bal des Débutantes has been likened to a “Met Gala for Teenagers.” This event beautifully marries haute couture with the elegance of tradition. The upcoming ball, scheduled for Saturday, November 29, will unfold at the luxurious Hotel Shangri-La, promising to deliver the timeless glamour that has become its hallmark.
Bronwyn’s participation was confirmed on Instagram by Le Bal, where images of her collaboration with haute couture designer Stephane Rolland were shared. In one image, Angela Bassett stands proudly with her daughter and Rolland, while another charming selfie includes Bronwyn’s twin brother, Slater Josiah, captured by their father, Courtney B. Vance.

This year, Bronwyn will be in illustrious company. As reported by Tatler and Hello!, the event will also feature Lady Araminta Spencer-Churchill, a direct descendant of Winston Churchill; Carolina Lansing, granddaughter of the iconic fashion designer Carolina Herrera; Ella Wadia, the great-great-granddaughter of Pakistan’s founder Muhammad Ali Jinnah; and Ruby Kemper, granddaughter of the late MGM Studios magnate Kirk Kerkorian.
