Annabel’s

Marking the Yuletide occasion in true Annabel’s style, the Mayfair private members’ club has launched its festive makeover. 

The exteriors have been stripped of their Halloween mask and transformed into a giant shimmering peacock perched within a whimsical snow globe. Even if you don’t have a membership, you can always head down this month to catch their epic Christmas exterior display.
