From Stormzy’s epic performance to that supermodel-filled finale.
The show kicked off with the ringing of Big Ben and then, backstage footage of John Galliano dressing Kate Moss in custom Maison Margiela. After that, opera singer Hongni Wu, one of the Royal Opera House’s brightest young stars, delivered a moving rendition of “When I Am Laid In Earth” from Henry Purcell’s, accompanied by the Southbank Sinfonia.
Dido’s heartbreaking lament, sung as she’s forsaken by her lover and preparing to step onto a funeral pyre, is a plea to be remembered, and it connected to the overarching theme of the show’s first act: namely, a meditation on the ephemerality of life and of beauty, as well as that of runway shows and theatrical productions.
