Suki Waterhouse looked stylish in her matching two-piece outfit from the Victoria Beckham SS14 collection. The white three-quarter length shirt featured geometric colour blocks of pink and red. He sporty feel to the whole look was only further accentuated with the addition of her SUPERGA pink pumps.
Rosie Fortescue and Millie Mackintosh both chose sleek black outfits for their night out, Rosie added a touch of colour via her orange crop top and spiked Joomi Lim necklace.
