A

photograph, drinks balanced between conversations. In Myles Hendrik’s images of KIKO Milano’s celebration for Madonna at Chateau Marmont, those details tell the story.

​

Held following the VMAs, the gathering

honoured the beauty brand’s global

ambassador, with Sabrina Carpenter, Charli

XCX, Odessa A’zion, Julia Garner, and Emily Ratajkowski among those attending. Velvet

seating, drawn curtains, and closely gathered

guests framed a night built around the people in

the room.

FROM THE SCENE

Daisy Edgar-Jones in Schiaparelli, London

A literary gathering, a sculptural silhouette.

For Universal Pictures’ Sense & Sensibility Book Club Q&A in London, Daisy Edgar-Jones wore a look from Schiaparelli’s Fall/Winter 2026–27 ready-to-wear collection, designed by Daniel Roseberry.

A white crepe shirt with demi-lune sleeves and gold keyhole buttons met an asymmetrical black taffeta skirt, its pleated detailing inspired by reptile skin. The black-and-white palette brought the interplay of volume and texture into focus, while the gold accents offered a touch of the house’s surrealist sensibility.

A literary gathering, a sculptural silhouette.st sensibility.

KIKO Milano's 3d Hydra Lipgloss, offered throughout the

evening.

For the occasion, Chateau Marmont was

illuminated in lilac, linking KIKO

Milano's signature colour with

Madonna's Confessions II. Inside,

beauty entered the celebration through

small, personal exchanges.

​

Guest received engraved tubes of 3D 

Hydra Lipgloss, while attendants 

carrying vintage-inspired trays

circulated with selections from the 

brand. A familiar beauty object became

a keepsake, something offered, chosen,

and carried away.

​

Madonna’s makeup was created by Marcelo Gutierrez, her makeup artist and KIKO Milano’s Global Make-Up Artistry Creative Director. Absolut cocktails titled “Danceteria Afterhours” and “Bring Your Love” extended the musical references into the drinks menu, and the celebration continued until 3 a.m.

​

Across the photographs, the evening moves between composed portraits and less guarded moments: a crowded table, a smile caught beside the bar, a figure bent over the decks.
