FBC members were out and about at various events for October’s most infamous holiday. Fashion editor, Karolina Kivimaki; fashion designer, Regine Mowill; fashion stylist, Rebekah Roy; and business consultant, Rahima Valji were all spotted at FBC’s favourite new venue, Sketch for the Audio Sushi + Forward PR Autumn Party. Purple proved to be a popular fashion choice and guests enjoyed a world class lineup of DJs in the quirkily appointed Parlour.

The next evening a not-to-be-missed Halloween bash was hosted by Browns Focus and Alexa Chung at The House of St. Barnabas in Soho Square. FBC’s Daisy de Villeneuve was my date and wore a vintage black dress for a stunning vampire-esque look, and I went as a fashion murderer, killing tartan (costume concept credited to Michael Herz).

Upon arrival, Daisy was snapped up by the paparazzi then interviewed by Jade Parfitt for Vogue TV.ÂÂ

We ran into the gorgeous team from Vogue.com: Julia Neel, Jessica Bumpus and Leisa Barnett, and fashion designer, Henry Holland, channelling Beetlejuice in a costume he made himself.  I did apologise to him for killing tartan, considering his last collection featured it heavily.  He was ok with it.  It was hard to know who was exactly there as everyone was in disguise, but we did spot Pixie Geldof and fashion stylist, Alexia Somerville.

Winding through the massive venue, we ended up in a beautiful and spooky chapel and had good chats with Aurélie Lambillon, editor-in-chief of Paris’ Jalouse magazine, and Serena Reese, owner of Agent Provocateur.

Heading out, we ran into twins, Daniela and Annette Felder from Felder Felder, snuck back in for a last dance, then hit one last party in Stockwell where we ran into super cute thespian couple, Kate Mara (Brokeback Mountain) and Charlie Cox (Stardust), before calling it a night.
