The party started at 6pm on Saturday, across the table-cloth strewn, charcoal carpeted O2 arena — at first, a sea of music biz types (most of whom pulled their work Christmas party sequins out of retirement prematurely), before the couture clad Brits streamed in off the red carpet.
Charli XCX sauntered about in an acrylic bodiced Marni gown; Olivia Dean upped the ante in a slinky, indigo Saint Laurent number and the posh girl table quickly livened up (the one hosting Straight Outta Bedales girl group The Last Dinner Party who dressed as Central Saint Martins fashion graduates).
