Marie Claire joins Nicole Richie at a special private dinner in London to launch her latest collections

Marie Claire joined Nicole Richie last night for a special private dinner in London to launch her latest collections.

Co-hosted by my-wardrobe.com CEO and founder Sarah Curran, the bash - held at Soho House - featured an exclusive preview of Nicole's autumn/winter collections for her two labels, House of Harlow and Winter Kate.

Once we'd finished cooing over the clothes (the accessories are looking particularly strong), it was time for food, gossip and lots of champagne.

While Nicole may have made a splash as a striking brunette on her Marie Claire cover earlier in the year, she confessed to us she's thinking of going blonde again, before getting the whole table playing word games and sharing 'the best advice you've heard today'.

Nicole's own tip? A 10-second dance before you leave the house, in your heels, ensures no wardrobe malfunctions on the red carpet (and there was even a demo to prove her point).

Meanwhile, the tip she'd heard that morning from a stylist: chewing your food 50 times each mouthful will make us all slimmer and more beautiful.

We'll stick to the dancing.
