Us Brits would have to find a way of celebrating every fashionistas most anticipated event, London Fashion Week, in our own quirky way. True to form, the May Fair Hotel has taken it upon themselves this year to unveil a unique collection of cocktails, designed exclusively by London Fashion Week designers, for London Fashion Week. Cocktails and clothes, what more could the city’s most stylish want?
The world-famous hotel is renowned for being the haunt of London’s most fashionable citizens, and this year the May Fair is the official hotel of the Vodafone London Fashion Week. The London Fashion Week Designer Cocktail Collection is a collaboration between the May Fair Bar’s expert team of mixologists and a selection Fashion Week’s leading fashion houses, including Antoni & Alison, Alice by Temperley, Mark Fast, Corrie Nielsen, Olivia Rubin and Holly Fulton. Each cocktail is based on the designers SS13 Collection, and is inspired by their favourite tipples, scents and colours, meaning that it has never been easier to get your hands on a bespoke London Fashion Week design.
