Star-spangled opening for The Kensington club

Star-spangled opening for The Kensington club

Friday 20th July saw the classy launch of The Kensington Club, a new boutique club situated on High Street Kensington, London. The rain did not seem to faze the endless celebrities who wanted to be a part of the exciting evening.

The likes of Steve McFadden (aka Phil Mitchell) made an appearance with Joey Essex and the sister-duo, Sam and Billie Faiers, from The Only Way is Essex amongst the busy crowd. Both sisters looked stunning in their contrasting monochrome outfits and Joey pulling off his usual skinny chino look. As a trio, they did not fail to amaze with creams, blacks and whites complimenting their Essex charm. Sam’s shoes in particular were stunning and featured side-tassling on black shoe/ankle-boots. Cheska from Made In Chelsea followed in the reality TV stars’ footsteps in a pink sequined Topshop Dress Up number that made her dazzle.

The club itself ticked all the right boxes. Darkness was lit up with floating candles and dimmed lighting that all added to the “boutique” atmosphere of the club. Despite being small, each room has its own feel with sofa-style seating in secret corners of the building. 

The DJ booth was brought to life when Patsy Palmer took to the stage and played some classics that got everyone in the mood. Energy drink ice cream canapés were a treat for the evening, made personally in front of onlookers in impressive style. The barmen completed a perfect evening with their sincere charm and incredible cocktail-making skills.

Further appearances from Perez Hilton, Freya Berry and Sally Burcow ensured a remarkable celeb set up for the new west London hotspot.
