Yesterday at Montreal’s historical Windsor Station was held an incredible evening that left an indelible mark on the hearts of all who dared to attend.
Attendees unleashed their inner glam, at one of the most electrifying events of the year – The Électrique Glam Ball – benefiting the Lise Watier Foundation that empowers women to achieve financial independence.
Glamour has never been this fierce, this passionate, and this rebellious.
What , Where and Who…
Yesterday, Thursday October 12, 2023, at the iconic Windsor Station (1160, avenue des Canadiens-de-Montréal), 750 of the city’s social elite and philanthropists gathered for an evening that promised to set hearts on fire and let emotions soar to unprecedented heights.
This wasn’t your typical ball; it was a rebellion against the ordinary.
In the battle between all or nothing, the ball organizers encouraged its attendees to dress it up passionately, fiercely, and un-apologetically.
