Young Ladies About Town
The girls living and laughing their way around London, meeting lots of fascinating folk along the way...
Ultimate luxury
The inaugural VertyFirstTo Awards took place last night in the sumptuous environs of 5 Cavendish Square. We Young Ladies About Town, always keen for a spot of decadence, went along to see what luxuries we should be looking forward to.
As we circulated (enjoying the champagne and canapés) were delighted with a host of products which have caught the attention of the luxe experts. The panel of Connoisseurs – which included Giles Deacon, Sir John Hegarty and Poppy Delevingne – waded through thousands of candidates covering fashion, beauty, home, leisure, technology and venues to name the Most Eagerly Anticipated Luxury Launches of Spring 2013. John McCririk (below) and Vanessa Feltz were amongst the crowd eagerly awaiting the envelope-opening moment.

We can reveal the tantalising list of winners:
Fashion Accessories Chanel, Hula Hoop Bag
Health & Beauty Marc Jacobs, Sunshine Editions / Marni debut women’s fragrance (joint winners)
Home Blue Marmalade, Halo Lamp
Leisure Z.Boat by Zaha Hadid
Technology Leica, M Camera
Venues The View From The Shard
Overall Z.Boat By Zaha Hadid
In addition to these award-winners, a total of 40 feature in the VeryFirstTo Luxforecast, which is a pioneering index of all that’s fun and fabulous in the UK. Needless to say, our Christmas list is already sorted.
