Generous: Proud father Roman Abramovich splashed out on his daughter's sweet 16th

Roman Abramovich made sure his daughter had a 16th birthday to remember when he spent more than £200,000 on lavish celebrations last week.

The billionaire hired out West End club Paper for his daughter Anna, who is a pupil at West London school Godolphin & Latymer.

The Chelsea boss spent more than £120,000 hiring out the whole club for last Saturday's bash where guests were given goody bags containing iPods and jewellery.

Hit duo and Mercury Prize winners The Klaxons DJ-ed at the club at a cost of around £8,000 along with DJ and presenter Alexa Chung.

Catering to the under-age guests tastes was a range of alcohol-free cocktails such as mojitos, banana daquiris and Bellinis at an estimated cost of £70,000.

Meanwhile a dressing up area with hats, guitars and a wind-machine was understood to have cost the Russian businessman more than £20,000.

A specially installed flashing dance floor was also set up for the teenagers at a cost of £15,000.

Sixteen year-old Anna, who is heir to her father's £10 billion fortune, had been looking forward to the party for some time.

Last month she wrote on social networking site Facebook: "This is going to be the best party ever!"
