Sunday Times Style Stephen Jones Party
- The Wellington, Knightsbridge
When lauded milliner Stephen Jones wanted to launch his new range and limited edition Snow Queen vodka bottles, The Cult were tasked with organising a party worthy of a man who has made creations for the likes of Burberry, Roberto Cavalli, Karl Lagerfeld, Lanvin, Vivienne Westwood and Donna Karan and with A-list clients including Madonna, Grace Jones, Diana Ross, Dita Von Teese, Boy George and Kylie Minogue.
So we used the decadent surroundings of The Wellington club in Knightsbridge and teamed up with the Sunday Times Style magazine to concoct a party and opulent, high-fashion photoshoot with the help of DJ
Seb Fontaine and burlesque dancer Immodesty Blaize.
Canapes included gold leaf covered quail eggs inside tiny hat boxes, tuna seared with peacock feathers and decorated with edible crystals and caviar and glittering lobsters.
And the event resulted in a four-page spread in the ST Style magazine.
The award-winning drinks brand - popular with Kate Moss and Leonardo DiCaprio - collaborated with Jones to create the bottle, topped with a bespoke, miniature silver hat decorated in Swarovski crystals. With only 300 of these exclusive bottles available worldwide, it was guaranteed to become a chic collectors' item. Each hat was numbered and featured a "Stephen Jones for Snow Queen Vodka" engraving.
