House of fun

White City

Ain’t no house party like a Soho House party — or three, in the case of the White City launch, where they introduced themselves to the neighbourhood with champagne and fried chicken and a Sophie Ellis-Bextor-fuelled three-day bacchanal, where Ozwald Boateng and Charlie Casely-Hayford hung out and Laura Bailey snapped arty shots of the rooftop pool.

Pimms Perfection

Soho

Set in a rooftop bar in Soho distinguished guests including, Erin O’Connor, Jack Guinness, Sam Rollinson, Matt Richardson, Laura Pradelska, Sabrina Percy, Kristina Blahnik celebrated the re-launch of the Pimm's No.6 Vodka Cup. With British model Jack Guinness on the decks, guests enjoyed sampling the new summer No.6 cocktails and oysters, as a homage to the creator, Mr Pimm.

That’s so Gucci

Vauxhall

An artsy dinner was hosted by the ridiculously cool artist Ignasi Monreal at Brunswick House to celebrate his National Gallery-worthy collaboration with Gucci, where Alex Lawther knocked back vodka with his smoked salmon and Gala Gordon tried to set up a boy band with Sonny Hall and James Righton.

Gorgeous Giorgio

Mayfair

When Mr Armani throws a party, the A-listers come running in their best dancing shoes, so obvs Loyle Carner, Natalie Dormer and Clive Owen celebrated the launch of the new Giorgio Armani and Armani/Casa store on Sloane Street by grabbing a champagne glass to rave to De La Soul at the glitter-balled Giorgio’s pop-up club night at Tramp.

Class act

Kensington

‘It’s very difficult to be mad as hell when you’re holding an Olivier Award,’ said the brilliant Bryan Cranston at the annual awards ceremony at the Royal Albert Hall as he waved his Best Actor trophy. Later, Michael Sheen and Ophelia Lovibond decamped to the Natural History Museum to sink Peroni with fellow luvvies.

Fendi bender

Waterloo

Everyone had far too much fun at Fendi’s totes edgy night in the graffiti-splattered Lost Rivers tunnel to launch the Fendi FF Reloaded mega collection, where Lethal Bizzle and Renee Stewart knocked back Heineken and Belvedere while hip-hop dancers did their body popping thing clad in Fendi.
