To help you find the best Venetian mask for any occasion, follow us into this small and practical guide on how to choose your Venetian mask!

What kind of masquerade ball are you attending?

If you are going to attend a period costume ball, then a traditional Venetian mask will be the best choice!

Women can choose from a rich assortment such as: the elegant Colombina masks, which are glamorous and seductive, or the fascinating full face masks, which are characterized by elaborate designs and decorations. While for men we suggest choosing a traditional Venetian mask, such as the Bauta mask or the Plague doctor mask.

On the other hand, if you are going to take part in a modern masquerade ball: such as a black-tie masquerade ball or an elegant masked party, then the ideal choice are the Venetian metal masks: they perfectly match the evening dress and give a charming and seductive look!
