Diamonds and drama! The last ever Boodles Boxing Ball was one for the books
So, who was there for the final hurty-hurrah? Lady Delphi Primrose looked simply divine in a ruched lace gown, while her mother Lady Caroline oozed elegance in an excellent all-black number. Social scene party regulars Zara Martin and Hana Cross were spotted too, trying to guess whose portrait speed painter Dave Sharpe was splashing onto the canvas before punch-off. Perhaps the continuous Bond theme tunes should have been a clue before the portraits of Daniel Craig and Casino Royale’s Kurylenko were auctioned off for a handsome £20,000.
Outfits inside of the ring were stellar too. Dressed in Boodles pink and black, the bravest of the pack stepped onto the square to battle it out in full bravado. Flinches, winces and even some swoons were heard in the surrounding tables filled with deep-pocketed attendees. The Boodles Boxing Ball may have come to the end, but the bruises for the better – and certainly the diamonds – will live on.
