THE Life Ball in Austria is one of the most glamorous, extravagant parties in Europe, so it takes a lot to stand out. This star certainly managed it.

ROCKER Courtney Love debuted an eye-catching new look at the Life Ball in Austria over the weekend.

It takes a lot to stand out at a grand ball where other guests include transgender icon Amanda Lepore and bearded Eurovision winner Conchita Wurst, but the grunge rocker — who celebrates her 50th birthday next month — managed it with a gravity-defying bustier dress.

Held in Vienna, the Ball — the motto of which is ‘Fighting AIDS and celebrating life’ — attracts a diverse and flamboyant crowd each year for a grand party.
