The female stars were all in stunning form for the fashion bash, rocking a variety of summer style staples as they joined fellow soap star Colson Smith who plays Corrie cop Craig Tinker. They headed to swanky Italian restaurant Rosso on Spring Gardens which was booked out for the night for the Mars the Label bash.
The event was in celebration of Arianna's collaboration with her fashion brand and WeShop - the world’s first shopping platform which rewards shares in the company for every purchase. Arianna herself was in glamorous form in a figure-hugging white strapless gown, one of her own designs.
Arianna’s brand has become well known for its unique designs hugely popular with celebrities around the world including their signature fishtail swimsuit, made famous by Love Island star Mary Bedford who wore the item for her Love Island debut. A host of Love Island stars also joined the event on Thursday, including Antigoni Buxton with Jacques O'Neill, and Casa Amor Bombshell Cheyanne Kerr.
Antigoni was dressing for the summer temperatures in a bikini top and strappy mini-skirt. Although Jacques preferred to wrap up warm in a hoody boasting what could be described as Hacienda-style black and yellow stripes down the side.
The event featured performances from former Love Island star Wes Nelson, performing his latest single along with his previous hits including TikTok favourite “Nice to meet you”. Guests, who also included model Charlotte Dawson (pictured above with the Corrie favourites), also enjoyed personalised cocktails, signature Rosso canapés and live DJ sets.
Arianna, who boasts over 440k instagram followers, said of the new venture: "I am so excited to be a founding member of the WeShop family. The event is to celebrate our products being available on WeShop, I truly believe it is the future of online shopping and I am delighted to be a part of it."
Bolton-born Arianna played model Olivia Radfield on Coronation Street between 2018-2019. She joined the cobbles as a model for a photoshoot with Rosie Webster, played by Helen Flanagan, at the Underworld underwear factory and was swiftly embroiled in soap dramas.
