It was wedding bells at the Saatchi Gallery as Sophie Dahl and Jamie Cullum announced their engagement...

Alexandra Shulman hosted a dinner for Gucci creative director (and ES cover girl) Frida Giannini at the Saatchi Gallery. In typical Gucci style, the gallery's first floor was transformed with the signature colours of the refurbished SW1 store: black, gold and more gold.

You couldn't move for girls in Gucci. Claudia Schiffer and Erin O'Connor looked suitably super as they quaffed Laurent-Perrier before settling down to a Tuscan-inspired dinner. Sophie Dahl and Jamie Cullum announced their engagement and Richard Ashcroft treated the swinging crowd to an acoustic set.
