Going up!
Winter disco scarves
Whisper it, but we might be over the hump of naked red carpet dressing. Lupita Nyong’o wore a huge silver (Chanel) sequin scarf at the LFF on Sunday. Here’s to not freezing.
Chaise longues
The big ticket item at Frieze Masters? Gagosian’s (reportedly) £3 million, aluminium chaise longue. Marc Newson’s Lockheed Lounge ushers in the return of the interior delight. All recline.
The Divine
The Dalston gay club has really got into its stride since opening in February. Last weekend, even Gucci creative director Sabato de Sarno was spotted there last weekend.
Serious costume shopping
Clever shoppers were at the Royal Ballet and Opera’s huge Essex clear-out sale to prep for Halloween last weekend. Head to Islington’s Costume Studio to rent if you missed it — the Mayfair member’s club themes this year are tough.
Going down…
Bubble phone cases
Not sure where all these beastly 3D silver bubble iPhone cases are coming from, but would love to see them stopped.
Cosy autumn drinks
Anything cosy is naff, of course, but particularly bad are all warm things pecan, pumpkin and caramel flavour. Nothing much comforting about ultra-processed poison, girls.
Kaspa’s Desserts
Vile stuff, sorry. Petition to get them off Dean Street — and take their petrifying, inflatable, arm-flapping ice cream mascot with them — coming soon.
Jeff Goldblum
Am I the only one who is just a bit over the jazz hands of it all? Thought so but, no — Netflix has cancelled his Greek-god show Kaos. Time for a well deserved break.
