Kipling x Helena Christensen AW13 Collaboration Launch Event

Guests gathered at the East London hotspot Beach Blanket Babylon, 4th April 2013, to celebrate with Helena Christensen and the Kipling team their new collaboration bag range hitting stores mid September.

Upon arrival, guests were greeted with glasses of champagne and exotic cocktails. The new collection was displayed as an art installation and was a talking point for the guests as they mingled throughout the night. The bags inspired by and featuring Helena’s own photography were seen on the arms of the socialites and fashion scene regulars as they chatted to Helena to learn more about her inspirations.

Helena’s friend and fellow upcoming model Arran Sly, face of Calvin Klein, was seen dancing the night away with his model friends to the tunes on play by firm favourite London scene DJs Tabitha from Queens of Noize and Lou from New Young Pony Club. Socialite and fashion journalist Henry Conway made a fashion statement with his bold blue glasses on the night. I myself made the pictures seen here doing what I do best clutching a glass of champagne.

Helena made a grand entrance to the venue supporting her new Kipling rose print clutch from her range and grabbing everyone’s attention as the doors opened at 7:30pm. The party scene regulars were seen queuing up to get their own polaroid shots taken by the polaroid photographers capturing the guests special Kipling moments from the night hosted by Helena herself.
