Masquerades were a way for the Nobility and the King, Queen or both to have fun and push aside protocol and class distinction in the court. It was a way that the King could flirt with someone or a titled noble could flirt without the worry of a scandal breaking out of an assumed or imagined affair that would become the next gossip subject in court. All in all, it was a way to have fun and break free from class restraints.
