Last June 2018 London hosted an event highly awaited by the guests of the fashion house that sponsored it.
Chanel together with Yana Peel, Hans Hulrich Obrist, Michael R.Bloomberg and Christo and Adwoah Aboah was the godmother of the Summer Party held in the Serpentine Gallery to celebrate the Serpentine Pavillion 2018 created by the Mexican architect Frida Escobedo. To celebrate an artistic space that expands in the world and brings art, architecture and education, the collaboration between the Serpentine Gallery and Chanel is repeated, already tested last year and immediately proved successful. The 2018 project is dedicated to free art and free thinking finding fertile soil in a city that was central to youth revolutions, the protagonist of the most interesting movements.
Many guests at the party enriched by entertainment and the “Coco” Restaurant that offered a gourmet experience in the night that ended with ice cream served in the cart designed by the interior designer Joyce Wang. Now as always we head towards the most fashionable part of the news: let’s discover together what were the look worn by the celebrities invited by Chanel. Let’s start with the eagerly awaited Alexa Chung wearing a black lace dress with Chanel bag and accessories. Let’s go from the it girl par excellence to the top Suki Waterhouse who attended the event wearing a suit and skirt in ecru and beige wool tweed with Chanel bag, shoes and accessories. Ellie Bamber wore a short bustier dress in fully embroidered pink cotton and tulle which she combined with make-up, “Lion Protecteur” earrings in 18k white gold with pearls and diamonds, “Leon Venitien” ring in 18k white gold and diamonds and the “Plume” ring in 18k white gold and diamonds.
