For the final episode of season one, Laura speaks to Irish-born Creative Director and founder of her eponymous brand, Fiona Leahy Design, Fiona Leahy who has designed parties most of us could only dream of. Having made the jump from fashion to party planning 13 years ago, her catalogue of conquests and events stretch from Dita Von Teese and Marilyn Manson’s wedding to a Yayoi Kusama event for Louis Vuitton and Nat Rothchilds 40th birthday in Montenegro. If you have ever come across an event or tablescape image where your heart literally skips a beat, Fiona was probably the mastermind behind it. From tablescapes and machimalism, to pilgrimages through Peru in the name of rattan placemats and a solo meal to die for, this final episode really is the cherry on top and full to bursting with great travel and interior tips, and exactly where to go to kit out your own table wardrobe.  Antiques:Talisman - Interiors emporiumCircus Antiques - Great 70’s stuffRetrouviousMarkets:Ardingly Market (Ardingly International Antiques &amp; Collection Fairs)Porte de Clignancourt - Paris Flea MarketPortobello market - vintage napkinsInteriors and Tables:Soho HomeMerci Paris - SheetsH&amp;M Home - winter table clothZara HomeThe Cloth Shop - Table clothOnces MilanoHeather Taylor Home - LAEspelma -  CandlesLiberty - HomewareVV Ruveux - RibbonScarlet and Violet - FloristRestaurants:Lima in LondonCentral in Lima in Peru - Altitude menu

“I’ve just remembered I’ve got my Christmas wreath up” - Fiona Leahy

Laura fell head over heels with event planner Fiona Leahy’s tablescapes on the tiles… and then the woman behind them. Fiona is a master at designing celebrations that transport you to another world. And as someone who often has to create these magical moments under different sorts of pressure—but always with so much passion and unbridled imagination—we were intrigued to discuss CREATIVITY. Where does it come from? Can you learn to be creative or is it ingrained? And does stress help or hinder our creativity? As you’ll hear, Laura and Fiona don’t agree on every point—but we’re agreed on one thing. Always RSVP yes to a Fiona Leahy event!
