This Is What A Real Masquerade Party Looks Like

Party on, celestial monster

by NYLON x UNICEF Next Generation

There should be more masquerade balls in life. The magic of this past Halloween weekend's UNICEF Next Generation ball has us daydreaming of our next chance to really get dressed up and play with our identity. Nothing will probably ever top performances by Betty Who, Le Youth, and AlunaGeorge, though. Plus, the entire interior of L.A.'s Clifton's Republic was transformed into a celestial wonderland. Good thing our tarot reading said good things are in store for us, though. Perhaps that means we'll be masquerading again sometime soon! Until then, let's take a peek at all that went down in our exclusive gallery, below.

No white after Labor Day is a silly rule—especially when you're rocking it as well as AlunaGeorge.
