I have found another picture (unfortunately a small one) of the Princess wearing the same dress and jewels - so I guess it was at the same event: the "Bal des nations" (ball of the nations) in Geneva in the 1990, a charity ball aimed at raising funds to build a shelter home for young girls and women in Bogota, Colombia.
