Presenter, television producer, chef and designer Silvia Schneider will be dancing at two balls this week. On Thursday, February 8th, she will be a guest at the Vienna Opera Ball, and on Friday, February 9th, the 41-year-old will moderate the OÖN Gala Night of Sports in Linz’s Brucknerhaus together with Ö3 microman Tom Walek.
Several experts had a hand in designing the dress that the Linzer native will wear at this year’s Opera Ball: the Austrian costume designer Stephanie Hofer, the English fashion house DSI London and Silvia Schneider herself.
“The centerpiece of the opulent design is a bodysuit completely covered in gold Swarovski crystals,” enthuses the presenter, admitting that she had trouble trying it on. “It’s not easy to slip into this creation; the suit fits like a second skin that shows a lot but at the same time hides everything. The black dress hugs the figure and emphasizes it at the same time. It is the perfect combination of dedication and Restraint, and I’m really looking forward to walking up the opera stairs with it,” says Schneider. At the gala night of sports she will appear entirely in gold. (bar)
