OK Into the fray go I A debutante is a young lady, typically in her senior year of high school and comes from a family of means. The ball is her "Debut" into "Polite Society", usually the monied circles where her parents run. It is also where she is introduced to the young gentlemen from a similar background as her in hopes she will find a suitable suitor. In monied circles, this is a big deal. As for a dress, it depends on a lot of different things. If the parents are of enough means, the dress is custom made to the debutante's (and the rules of the cotillion, as well as her mother.) exact specifications. After the ball, the dress is donated to a charitable organization for a tax write-off for the parents and the charity will sell it at their thrift shop to those less fortunate. As for the train dragging on the ground, that picture was of her debut. Usually, once all the photo's have been taken, either the train is gathered up and fastened to the dress, much like a wedding dress, or the train is detached to convert the dress to floor length. Yes the trains can get dirty dragging around on the ground, however, a good dry cleaners can get most, if not all of the dirt out. In the 1800's, ladies used to wear a slip of sorts (I forgot the name) under their trains to keep their finery off the dirty streets and boardwalks. It fastened around the hems of their dresses and that is what dragged along the ground. I have heard they were making a come back in some circles.
