And then, a surprise!
It was Friday late at V&A (Once a month they open till 22,00)
This time was an oportunity of stepping into the glittering world of photographer Cecil Beaton.
The "Society of Bright Young Things" was a group that had become synonymous with glamour, money, celebrated names and lashings of snob appeal in the early 20s. They celebrated parties and meetings, some of them at V&A Museum. They must have been the coolest young people of their time. And that´s the reason this late night is named after them, to celebrate with vintage glamour.
Everybody was wearing a tiara and and top hats, and some 20s style beatiful dresses. A shame I didn´t know this before, I really would have enjoyed to wear a tiara while had a coctel drink.
Live jazz music, played by the Dixie Tricklers (http://www.dixieticklers.co.uk/), the coolest band!They sounded and looked so great (their vintage style is the best!).
Games (Scavenger hunt), lectures, live theater plays and lightdrawings altogether.
It was a lovely night.
