Mick Norcross
Up close & personal with TOWIE's You can get everything you need to look your best for a night on the town, right here at The Liberty. After the success of last year’s Club Fashion Event, thoughts turned to making it even more glamorous for 2012 and what better way than joining up with Sugar Hut the hottest club in Essex right now!
How did you get into the Night Club business?
I had worked in the business for many years and met several owners during this time. I became interested in owning my own venue and when the opportunity arose I took it and purchased my first club.
What’s the single most important factor in running a successful club?
Standards! The idea of Sugar Hut was to bring Eastern culture, mystery and enchantment to Essex and we pride ourselves on having the highest standards and Proudly sitting at the heart of Brentwood offering exceptional hospitality.
High Street, Sugar Hut is a world class night spot offering fine dining, bars, a night club and private members areas. After receiving national exposure on the award winning TV show The Only Way is Essex (TOWIE), Sugar Hut has become a popular haunt for celebrities and other fabulous guests both local and international. Owner and TOWIE cast member, Mick Norcross has to be the coolest bachelor to hit British TV screens, as he’s not just a successful businessman but also popular with the ladies. We caught up with Mick to find out the secrets to his success.
What impact has TOWIE had on your business? A very positive impact, I’m pleased to say. It has given us the opportunity to welcome new customers from the length and breadth of Britain and even Europe.
What happens during a Reem Parties event and what’s it like working with Joey Essex? We tend to have more local customers to Sunday’s Reem Parties, who obviously come in the hope of meeting Joey. He’s a great guy, exactly as you see him in the programme and loves meeting everyone.
What excites you about linking up with The Liberty Club Fashion Event? I think it’s great to support and team up with local companies. Our resident DJ Matt P will be at The Liberty Shopping Centre on 28th April giving everyone a taste of what Sugar Hut is all about.
A successful party is... A night with great atmosphere, good music and an overall experience that you’ve never had anywhere else. When you can create this night after night you’ll have happy customers!

Meet The Liberty Belles
Sienna
Alexa
Who’s your go-to style inspiration? Who’s your favourite fashion designer? Sienna: I can be a little bit of a tomboy at times, so Kurt Cobain or Ed Westwick but if I want to give my look a feminine edge I look to Kate Moss Alexa: I really like Eliza Doolittle’s look, the singer not the My Fair Lady character. Victoria: I love all that old Hollywood glamour like Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly but my modern day style icon is Victoria Beckham because her look is clean and classic.
Sienna: Christopher Kane –
What’s your favourite store?
Sienna: High heel trainers for
Sienna: I’m usually a Diesel girl when it comes to jeans but recently I discovered Superdry and their skinnys have made their way into my jeans drawer. Alexa: I’m a throw away fashion junkie and addicted to the high street so I’m forever in River Island, Miss Selfridge and Primark. Victoria: Debenhams is great for me and the kids; I especially love the designer ranges, Betty Jackson Black is my fave.

www.theliberty.co.uk
I love his galaxy designs! Alexa: Miu Miu no Gucci, no D&G, there are too many, not that I can afford them. Victoria: I’ve always adored Chloe and Claire Waight Keller designs for the spring/summer 2012 collection were really strong and made a statement with safe, wearable styles.
Which is your stand out trend for this summer? me. They look comfy and cool at the same time. Alexa: I’m pro colour for jeans and I think all the pastels that are about at the minute are so pretty. Victoria: Surprisingly, I’m loving all things tribal despite the fact prints are not usually part of my yummy mummy uniform.
Victoria What is your desert island beauty must have? Sienna: Waterproof mascara otherwise I would literally have no eye lashes. Alexa: Lancome watermelon juicy tube, then again it smells so good I might end up eating it! Victoria: Ooh can I have two, Batiste dry shampoo and Christian Dior Skinflash Radiance Booster Pen.
Why do you love The Liberty? Sienna: The Liberty holds
some brilliant events, I really enjoy coming along to the fashion shows and getting inspiration before I go shopping. Alexa: I love that all my favourite shops are all in one place so there’s always a good chance I’ll find what I am looking for. Victoria: During half term it can be a bit of a struggle to find fun things to do with the kids but I can always count on The Liberty to host some great activities.
