Yes, and the debutante will normally wear a white dress like a wedding dress. Isn't that interesting?

I've always wanted to be a debutante! I see, I know a debutante comes from an upper-class or aristocratic family. Does that apply to you? Welp, I don't have an aristocratic or upper-class family, so I guess I'm out of luck! At what age do most debutantes have their big, elaborate balls? I'm not sure, but becoming a debutante meant that you were old enough for marriage, and one purpose of the coming out was for display her to bachelors. Oh, I see! It seems like debutantes have a lot of history? Is this an old term? It's beyond me how old it is. But I do know that in Australia, debutant balls are often put together by high schools. Oh really? So, it sounds more commonplace than in the US!
