Mayfair’s Christmas Tree and Lights Switch-On Party
The Mayfair Christmas lights switch-on party was the busiest it’s ever been 🎄
Hundreds flocked to see British designer Rachel Whiteread turn on her Connaught Christmas tree lights and the pretty blue bows on Mount Street.
Bamford had music, drinks, nibbles, goody bags and talented illustrator Alice Nyong.
Eskandar hosted ballet performances of The Nutcracker.
Huge queues formed in Mount Street for free food and drink from Maison Rabih Kayrouz, Christian Louboutin and Hideaway restaurant whilst at the wooden chalets they bought gifts and more libations from the likes of Mr Fogg’s and Roebuck Estates 🍸
Florist Neill Strain designed a decadent wreath where elves were ready for selfies and The Connaught were giving out their delicious treats.
Then it was time to head to Matches where fashionistas gathered for Johnnie Walker cocktails, and upstairs metallic manicures by Ruuby and piercings by Otiumberg 💅 Designer brand Raey had exclusive handmade Christmas Baubles too!
Rachel Whiteread’s Connaught tree design is to encourage Londoners to celebrate a feeling of togetherness and circles of positive brightness throughout the festive season.
Will you be visiting the tree this year?
