Kim Turnbull hits the DJ decks as Clara Amfo dazzles in red at a week of celeb parties across London

London played host to a flurry of star-studded events this week, with celebrities like Kim Turnbull, Clara Amfo and Jaime Winstone painting the town red.

Kim hit the decks with her DJ legend father Alex Turnbull at the launch of John Lewis’ 2025 Christmas advert at Cafe KOKO in Camden, north London, on Tuesday.

The 24-year-old girlfriend of Romeo Beckham rocked head-to-toe John Lewis as she spun tunes with her dad, who is the founder of one of the UK's first hip-hop labels, Ronin Records.

Leading the night’s celebrations was 90s dance icon Alison Limerick, who took to the stage for a surprise live performance of this year’s advert soundtrack, her timeless anthem Where Love Lives, newly reimagined by Labrinth.

Guests including Jaime Winstone, Clara Amfo, Henry Holland, and DJ Fat Tony were joined by up-and-coming DJ Cat Ellis, who opened the evening with a vibrant set of 90s-inspired club classics.

Ellis set the tone for the night before handing over to Alex and Kim, who kept the crowd dancing late into the night.

Across town, Clara Amfo was on hand to celebrate the launch of The Search Bar, the world’s longest coffee bar in Covent Garden.

The 41-year-old Radio 1 DJ put her best sartorial foot forward in a striking red column gown teamed with a pair of black barely there heels.

The broadcaster partnered with Google, powered by AI, to launch the limited-edition pop-up experience on Thursday night.

The kitsch-cool coffee bar is free to Londoners and open between 7 to 9 November.
