On Sunday night, the 77th annual BAFTAs dazzled viewers from London's Royal Festival Hall. There was much to see—Americans Emma Stone and Da'Vine Joy Randolph won big, Sophie Turner Bexter delighted everyone by performing Murder on the Dancefloor live, Cillian Murphy took home the award for best actor, while Oppenheimer director Christopher Nolan won for best director. As the awards show wrapped, host David Tennant knew the perfect send-off for attendees, cheekily stating, “As a wise man once said: come on Barbie, let's go party!”
Partygoers gathered at NoMad in the West End to celebrate the many victors in attendance. Amidst the crowd, Best Supporting Actor winner Robert Downey Jr. made a quick change, sporting a Sex Pistols T-shirt under his grey suit for the after-party. Meanwhile, tucked away in a booth, the illustrious and elusive Cillian Murphy chatted with his Oppenheimer castmate Emily Blunt while graciously accepting a sea of congratulations from fellow attendees. Under the NoMads stately glass conservatory ceiling, partygoers danced. At the same time, It-girl Florence Pugh mingled while stunning in a white lace asymmetric dress and feathered shawl. Upstairs, attendees took turns at a glambot while indulging on a grazing board fit for a king and a seemingly endless flow of delectable passed canapés and champagne.
Londoners know that Chiltern Firehouse is the place to be, and what better place for Netflix to gather with British film's cool kids to fête the BAFTAs? The party was packed on every floor, with familiar faces from fan-favorite shows and movies. Partygoers enjoyed a live DJ and danced into the early morning—while taking breaks to stop by the margarita bar, of course.
