Item title reads - The Chelsea Arts Ball. Hundreds of merry art students were garbed as legendary figures of the frozen north. London. Two gates which look like a big iceberg are moved aside and people in fancy dress come through, the men look a bit like Roman warriors with wings on their helmets and the girls have dangly hats and sleeves. Various shots of the students posing, one girl sticks her tongue out. They walk down the roads with big models of people, some students wear costumes which make them look like big heads on poles. C/U of a big model head with the jaw opening and closing. FILM ID: A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
