Diary – The Esquire Summer Party

The fresh English rain scented the air, as the evocative sounds of former Esquire cover man and BBC One’s Luther Idris Elba’s music selections were heard as guests filled Somerset House in London last night at the 2013 Esquire and Stella Artois party to celebrate the launch of the Esquire Your Life supplement, available free with the July issue of Esquire .

ESQUIRE editor Alex Bilmes deftly lauded the partnership between Esquire and Stella Artois, “We’re delighted to be able to join forces with Stella Artois to create a guide that celebrates the very best of the British summer. If that ever arrives we’re sure it’ll come in handy.”, There was no shortage of visual variety among the plethora of well-dressed editors, models, designers, singers, actors and photographers. Guests included the effortlessly dapper Marios Schwab. Eliza Doolittle, was also in attendance and insouciantly displayed her stunning figure in a long, black dress that practically asked is it me you’re looking for?

American actor Jared Leto arrived in a rock and roll ensemble minus the Jesus-like long brunette locks—before having a few Stellas looked convincingly regal—or at least presidential—himself.

The night was truly a success. Now all we need is for the weather to do its part in order for the very best of British style and culture suggestions for making the most of the summer, selected by Esquire’s experts to go according to plan.
