HIGH SUMMER

With the Solstice looming, royals, rock stars and an

all-but-naked, ivy-clad rebel (designer Philip Sallon)

flocked to the V&A Summer Party, hosted by Tristram

Hunt and Nicholas Coleridge, and sponsored by Dior.

In the John Madejski Garden, whispers rippled in the

wake of the former Prime Minister, as Dame Joan

Collins posed beside a topiary mannequin and Stevie

Nicks left even the most practiced Society darlings

star-struck. The Windsor contingent (Lord Freddie,

Lady Gabriella, Lady Amelia and cousin Cassius Taylor)

held court and Joy Cookes’ performance on the flower-

garlanded pagoda had Saddle bags swinging.
