Great Moments in Journalism are submitted by readers, and can be sent to this address. Your Moment comes from a recent NYT article concerning the International Debutante Ball, and shows that, once again, it's the little details that bring out the best in journalism.

Ms. Falchi is 22 and brunet, with cherry-hued cheeks and great teeth, and tomorrow she will indeed have her coming out in the International, which takes place at the Waldorf-Astoria.
