    A masterclass in dressing for those summer Gala

    The annual Serpentine Summer Party took place last night in London and it seems all of London's style set were there.

    Arguably, one of the most anticipated events in the summer social calendar, the Serpentine Summer Party at The Serpentine Gallery in Hyde Park is always full-to-the-brim with A-listers in their most fabulous summer gowns.

    No Serpentine party is complete without a gaggle of supermodels and everyone from Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Erin O Connor and Jade Parfitt were in attendance. Lily Donaldson, Georgia May Jagger and Chantelle Brown Young (also known as Winnie Harlow) represnted the new guard in the modeling world and were in suitable stylish attire.

    The art crowd was represented too with our latest girl crush, the super talented Phoebe Collings-James making an appearance dressed in a striking red Simone Rocha dress.
