Diesel XXX: Celebrating 30 Years of Creativity



I know that binge drinking is neither big nor clever but at a party as good as the Diesel one last night, it is difficult not to get carried away. Held at new London venue, Matter, (near the 02 arena) guests included Mischa Barton (who was unassumingly caught up in my elaborate scam for more free booze, poor love) and Paris Hilton who was hanging out with her gaggle of wannabe best friends for her new TV show.

Babyshambles (unsurprisingly minus Pete), Supergrass, Mark Ronson (confusingly joined mid-set by my disorientated house-mate!) and Patrick Wolf all played while the rest of us rammed into each other at the club’s only bar. I was lucky enough to bump into the lovely Roisin Murphy in the lift and attempted to take a picture of her and her delicious peachy-pink ensemble. Sadly my camera wasn’t up to the challenge but I will place bets that some other fashionista will have snapped her in the click of a Louboutin.

Paris was undoubtedly queen bee of the evening but only hovered within the confines of her VVIP area, I sense this was to avoid eager, camera-wielding people like myself! I took some photos quite early on. I cannot blame technology for the minimal picture-taking, it was simply my incapacity to hold the darned camera later on! Enjoy!

The View and Babyshambles' Drew McConnell

I try to avoid rudeness on Fashion Slant so publishing a picture of this dufus is a bit of a contradiction. I think I may have irritated him by repeatedly calling him "Nick Cage's son" when his real name is "Nick Cave's son". I have a feeling he Googles himself every day so hi there Nick Cage's son!
