Dolce & Gabbana returns for the 2nd year to design the Claridge’s Christmas tree. Inspired by their childhood memories, the 8-meter-high tree’s design celebrates the “children of the world,” featuring a magical woodland theme. The theatrical creation includes a sprinkling of snow and groups of animated deer, rabbits and squirrels gathered at the tree’s base.

“Christmas is the happiest time of the year for children and we want to celebrate it with a tree that brings together all the different cultures from around the world,” explain the designers.

“We thought of an enchanted forest where the real meets the unreal, just as it does the night before Christmas.”

Attending the party to celebrate the unveiling were Kylie Minogue, Erin O'Connor, Olga Kurylenko, Daisy Lowe, Pixie Lott, and Anna Kendrick.
