Last night, after all the buzz around the 2026 BAFTAs race, it was time to blow off some steam at British Vogue’s Fashion & Film after-party. Vogue once again partnered with GQ for the now traditional event, welcoming a star-studded crowd that included Hamnet’s Jesse Buckley and One Battle After Another’s Teyana Taylor, who co-hosted the party alongside Chase Infiniti, Michael B Jordan, Odessa A’Zion, Ethan Hawke, Riz Ahmed, and heads of editorial content Chioma Nnadi and Adam Baidawi.
Buckley arrived fresh from scooping the trophy for best actress for her performance in Hamnet, joining 2026’s best actor winner, Hull’s own Robert Aramayo, among the guests. Hosted within the grand, oak-panelled halls of Simpson’s in the Strand—an unofficial reopening for the stalwart venue, now under the stewardship of restaurateur Jeremy King—partygoers sipped on Champagne and Grey Goose martinis, before being whisked home courtesy of Volvo’s fleet of XC90s. See some of the best photos from inside the party, below.
