A galaxy of family, friends
and industry professionals turned up at The
Regent Banqueting
Suite London in celebration of the 50th Birthday
and 30 years in fashion golden gala for multiple award-winning couturier,
Adebayo Jones.
It
was an evening of pulsating colour, style, glitz, glamour and gold as guests
were treated to an intimate celebration of gospel praise and worship, fashion,
entertainment, sumptuous dinner and dancing. The theme of the event was gold, a
true reflection of the designer’s love for all things golden and glitzy which
has earned him the title “All that glitters is Adebayo Jones” in the
fashion press.
“The
king of couture” as he is fondly and affectionately referred to by the
fashion media had preferred an intimate celebration however the occasion was
indicative of his delightful love for gold. Male guests were requested to turn
up in black tie and female guests were to come glamorously and fabulously
adorned in golden outfits or black with golden accessories. From the invitation
cards and the venue decor it was evident that this was going to be a truly
golden celebration -and that was how it turned out in the end.. The table decor
by Blossom
Occasions was
first-rate.
