October may bring Halloween, but the cool-girls in London have plenty to get dressed up for before we reach the 31st.

This month brings us Frieze London, AKA the fashion week of the art world, meaning after parties galore. Plus, sliding into the new season brings a plethora of spectacular AW23 soirées.

Bulgari's Frieze Party

The exclusive art event was given a sparkling touch by Bulgari with a gala dinner on Wednesday at the prestigious Bulgari Hotel. Hosted by Joyce Weng, Bulgari UK's Managing Director, guests were treated to a performance by contemporary artists from James Cousin’s company, showcasing a curated selection of high jewellery pieces. Didn't we tell you Frieze after parties are a given? DJ Cuppy then took to the decks for the glamorous guests to dance the night away.

An event full of cool-girls for an It-girl jewellery brand.

Garrard Takes Over The Tower of London

To celebrate the launch of Garrard’s new Wings Rising collection, the iconic jewellery label hosted a cocktail party fit for a King inside the Tower of London on Thursday 12 October. Guests experienced a spot of history as they walked past the crown jewels before entering the historic White Tower, which was lit up in Garrard's signature blue and white colourway, to enjoy canapes and drink cocktails with upbeat tunes. The occasion also marked 20 years of Garrard’s iconic Wings collection, with the new pieces presenting an evolution of the signature motif, which made its debut in 2003.

Esteemed guests including Queen Charlotte's India Amarteifio, Saffron Hocking and Emma Appleton, who all wore jewellery from the exquisite new collection.
