BAFTA party brings British culture to Los Angeles.
BAFTA invited attendees to the Maybourne Beverly Hills for the afternoon affair. For celebrity insiders, the annual party is a welcomed but fashionable break from the marathon of galas and late-night dinners that can consume the awards season. A-listers ditched their gowns and tuxedos for tea-length A-line dresses and relaxed fits while celebrating art, entertainment, and British culture.

Captures from inside the event show a covered outside area filled with primarily gold and red decor. Deep red rose installations hung beautifully around the room with gold statues and a large gold letter “BAFTA” photo area.
The walls displayed grass-leaf installations, and the ground was green turf. While enjoying tea, champagne, small appetizers, and desserts, attendees experienced British notes from BBC Studios, “Dancing With the Stars,” and more.
