The end of the Brit Awards ceremony was just the start of the celebrations, as stars flocked to Warner Music’s afterparty, held at the Nomad Hotel in London’s Covent Garden.
Among the revellers were Dua Lipa and her actor boyfriend Callum Turner, who danced the night away while sipping cocktails by Cîroc Vodka that were named after the record label’s nominees – including a Houdini martini, After the After Party and a Mercy margarita.
The duo were joined by Kylie Minogue, Charli XCX and DJ Chloé Caillet, who performed a set accompanied by a dancing lobster.
Warner pulled out all the stops for an extravaganza designed and produced by Jason Morais and the label’s global events team.
Guests were greeted by a 20fthigh inflatable party monster suspended over the venue’s dancefloors, a party monsterinspired carpet and a colour-blockthemed photo booth.
Among those feasting on sweetcorn croquettes, mini hotdogs with black truffle and tuna tostadas were Maya Jama and Clara Amfo, who joined fellow guests Isla Fisher, Nick Grimshaw and Annie Mac, Laura Whitmore and her husband Iain Stirling, and Victoria’s Secret models Nadine Leopold and Shanina Shaik.
Although new parents Jack Whitehall and his fiancée Roxy Horner missed the ceremony, they were among those who took to the dancefloor for a performance by Jacob Lusk from Gabriels, enjoying a lively set that included covers of songs by Sylvester, Tina Turner and Whitney Houston.
