What’s the whole purpose of a cotillion and what is it exactly?

692 views

All I know is that is has something to do with girls being in white dresses and doing something? Then there’s a cotillion ball or something? Not entirely sure of what the purpose is or what’s the requirements to get into one. I’m a dude so I don’t think it applies to me.

I’m still very much so intrigued by it and what would a person do if they got accepted into a cotillion or whatever.

– Also I live in the United States, if you were wondering.

I found [this article](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debutante_ball) that describes it as “In contemporary United States, they are sometimes known as debutante cotillion balls in American English. Most are for middle schoolers as a chance to teach manners…”
