What to expect

Hosted by ITN/Sky presenter Olivia Guthrie and former BBC foreign correspondent Adam Mynott, STRUT is a celebration of people and community through clothes. Where contemporary designs meet slow fashion and timeless elegance: from Dolce and Gabbana to Cerruti; Prada to Michael Kors; Jigsaw to Joseph.​ This charity fundraiser will begin on the red carpet, followed by bubbles and canapés. The lively performance will include an auction of some fabulous offerings, plus special appearances, prizes and surprises. So it’s an evening for everyone.

​

Proceeds from the show and pop-up shops afterwards will go to vital maintenance and preservation of this much-loved Grade 1 listed building.
