The window display alone deserves a look, transformed into a vintage grooming parlour especially for the evening. Think kitsch hair styling by Michael van Clarke, retro makeovers by Lauren Hersheshon and London Gun playing DJ as accompaniment. A raffle, supporting Kids Company, will see one lucky winner depart with a pair of the limited edition FNO shoe, signed by Mr Louboutin himself. Heaven is a place on earth after all.
