Since Mulberry’s Spring 2012 Ready to Wear took inspiration from the British summer holiday, it seemed only fitting that the L.A. dinner in honor of the collection follow suit. Thus, last night the Chateau Marmont’s pool patio was transformed into a jolly English seaside boardwalk (as envisioned by Mulberry creative director Emma Hill) with animal balloons, floating blow-up alligators and beach balls, sculptures of giant ice cream cones, and festooned Blackpool–style lights. “My nickname is ‘More, more. Bigger, bigger,’ ” said Hill of her approach to party decor.
Despite the carnival-like surroundings, the dinner itself was a relatively low-key and casual affair that drew stylish locals like Gia Coppola, Vogue Contributing Editor Lawren Howell, Nathalie Love, Jaime King, and Jessica Joffe. Tableside Instax Mini cameras and novelty paper glasses with shades that spelled out “Oooh” kept guests occupied until the first course arrived, at which point talk turned to (no surprises here) Hollywood–sanctioned topics like holiday film releases and X Factor eliminations.
