	Debutante Summary
		Since debutante balls were private affairs, held at the family's residential estate or at a fashionable hotel until the early twentieth century, they also pointed to a given family's wealth, prestige, and style.
		However, the expression "debutante" or "deb" for short continues to be used, especially in the press, to refer to young girls of marriageable age who participate in a semi-public upper class social scene.
		Debutante ball students who are partaking in the official precedings must learn how to ballroom dance.
