Manolo Blahnik, Heckfield
Manolo Blahnik, a summer house party
Red scribble shaped like a broad zigzag line with rounded edges.
How much can one English summer’s day hold? For Manolo Blahnik’s Autumn Collection, we turned an overnight stay at Heckfield Place into a chic British summer house party.
The word RESONATE in large, light blue, blurred capital letters.
Passport to Pleasure
Red scribble shaped like a broad zigzag line with rounded edges.
Our guiding principle was A Matter of More. More to discover. More to do. More reasons to stay a little longer. Every guest arrived to a personalised Manolo passport, their ticket to the experience ahead. Then the day began to unfold.

A Beautifully Full Day

Red scribble shaped like a broad zigzag line with rounded edges.
Boating on the lake. A picnic on the bank beneath Manolo parasols. Afternoon tea in the Glasshouse. A Billecart-Salmon Champagne tasting. Each moment revealing another side of the house and another expression of Manolo. As afternoon became evening, cocktails led into dinner by Skye Gyngell in The Hearth, with local flowers and meadow planting bringing the English summer inside.

A Little More Summer, Please

Red scribble shaped like a broad zigzag line with rounded edges.
Then came parlour games hosted by Alexandra Llewellyn. Espresso martinis. Late-night snacks. And, the following morning, breakfast in bed. A Matter of More. From the first passport stamp to the last morning in bed.
