At Josephine Scott London, the Queen Charlotte’s Ball is not simply an event we dress for, it is a tradition we are deeply proud to be part of.

For many years, we have had the honour of being the official designer and dresser of the debutantes for Queen Charlotte’s Ball, hosted by the London Season. This historic role places us at the heart of one of Britain’s most distinguished and enduring ceremonies, and it is a responsibility we approach with great respect for its heritage and meaning.

Each season, we create bespoke gowns for the debutantes, designed to reflect both the timeless elegance of the Ball and the individuality of each young woman. Our designs are rooted in classical detailing, refined silhouettes, and exceptional materials, ensuring every debutante feels confident, poised, and connected to the generations of women who have taken this walk before her. Dressing the debutantes is not only about couture, but about honouring tradition and celebrating personal milestones.

The Queen Charlotte’s Ball has a rich history dating back to the 18th century, when young women were first presented to society in honour of Queen Charlotte, consort of King George III. Today, the Ball continues under the stewardship of the London Season, preserving its ceremonial significance while evolving to reflect modern values.

At the heart of the Ball is its strong charitable foundation. The debutantes are selected not only for their elegance and etiquette, but for their commitment to philanthropy and service. Each young woman actively supports charitable causes, contributing time, effort, and fundraising to organisations focused on education, healthcare, children’s welfare, and community support. Their involvement extends far beyond the evening itself, reinforcing the Ball’s longstanding belief that tradition and social responsibility go hand in hand.

We are immensely proud to support and dress young women who represent such integrity, compassion, and purpose. Our longstanding relationship with The Queen Charlotte’s Ball reflects our shared values: craftsmanship, heritage, and giving back.

Being part of this tradition year after year is a privilege. Through our work with Queen Charlotte’s Ball and the London Season, we continue to celebrate British couture, history, and the next generation of women who carry these values forward with grace and conviction.
