What is the name of the ceremony in which a 15-year-old girl is formally presented to society, wearing an elaborate ball gown, accompanied by a court of honour and a religious mass, marking the transition from childhood to womanhood?

Answer: Fiesta de quince anos — The quinceanera is one of the most elaborate family celebrations, often costing as much as a wedding, with a choreographed waltz, a last doll ceremony and the changing of flat shoes to high heels.
