INTRODUCTION
JASON GALE When I first thought of creating an event that celebrated the people, the businesses and the city that i had fallen in love with, I never imagined that the dream and reality would grow quite so quickly. The first London Lifestyle Awards were immediately a huge success. Thousands of businesses were nominated and hundreds of thousands of people voted for their favourites, culmiating in a hugely enjoyable night honouring the best lifestyle businesses in London. The book you are reading now is an extension the London Lifestyle Awards brand, a showcase that beautifully encapsulates why we do what we do; a constant reminder to everyone of the very best that London has to offer in terms of incredible lifestyle businesses. We hope you enjoy our first London Lifestyle Awards 300. They are in our opinion the very best of the best and you should definitely try and get to know as many of them as you can. Jason Gale Founder/ CEO World Lifestyle Awards | London Lifestyle Awards

LONDON LIFESTYLE AWARDS From the first London Lifestyle Awards it was clear that even with over 4000 publc nominations and a glittering array of celebrities and public figures in attendance, it was London itself that was the real star of the show. London leads the world in so many areas: art, fashion, tourism, hospitality, industry, finance, music, the list goes on and on. It is the reason the awards were created, to celebrate the people and businesses that make the city exceptional to the locals and visitors alike. The London Lifestyle Awards generate an overwhelming amount of support from across the capital - from the leaders in industry to a hugely engaged general public, there have been over one million votes cast since they began. 700 people, including a variety of celebrity guests and presenters, attend this very special gala evening. The national press will be in attendance, ensuring widespread coverage and guaranteed publicity for all our sponsors and partners. The Awards have become a key date on the London social calendar and are unique in that they not only allow a moment to reward our capital’s most sucessful and inspiring but they also provide an opportunity for the lifestyle business community to mix with the great and good of the city. A host of famous faces have attended the Awards since its very beginning and return year on year. It is a night of prestige intended to celebrate high profile businesses that are treasured by the London public.

PIZZA EXPRESS PizzaExpress Jazz Club has always presented jazz in a fresh and unpretentious way: up close and personal with great pizza to accompany some astonishing music. From its birth in the Swinging Sixties under the auspices of founder Peter Boizot, the swing and trad stars of the day helped build a solid rep for great music. When Boizot retired in 1993, his successor Peter Wallis brought over many of New York’s top jazz names and some of its legendary jazz club atmosphere too – all helping to stamp this club’s serious credentials well and truly on the cultural map.
PIZZA EXPRESS JAZZ CLUB In the early 2000s rising stars Diana Krall and Norah Jones made their UK debuts here, as did UK greats Jamie Cullum, Gwyneth Herbert and Clare Teal. Sting, Pat Metheny and Branford Marsalis have all dropped by to jam as well. Now in its 45th year the Dean Street venue is rightly considered one of Britain’s finest jazz clubs with an international reputation to boot, thanks to manager Ross Dines’ brilliantly balanced programming that has seen mesmerising performances from Grammy winning soul-jazz giant Gregory Porter, Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts, vocal icon Amy Winehouse, violin virtuoso Nigel Kennedy, bass star Richard Bona and revered jazz singers Kurt Elling and Melody Gardot alongside its many acclaimed mini-festivals, special events and knock-out one-off performances. Today, PizzaExpress Jazz Club is part of the very heart, and soul, of Soho.

MELISSA ODABASH
Starting her career as a swimwear model in Italy where she modelled a variety of unflattering, garish swimsuits, Melissa launched her own brand of traditionally cut swimwear in timeless prints and colours in 1999. Designing the best-selling bikini in the Victoria Secret catalogue and named by British Vogue as ‘The Ferraris of the bikini world’ shortly after, Melissa has been credited with ‘re-introducing high fashion into the swimwear world’ with complementary ranges including everything from beachwear, hats, readyto-wear and kids wear. Having been established for well over a decade, her insightful know-how and discerning use of superior fabrics demonstrates the skill and time that it has taken to really become a master in her industry. Melissa’s innate sense of what women are looking from in their swim and beachwear has led to various successful collaborations with Couture designer Julien Macdonald and has seen her work with the likes of The Elton John Aids Foundation & Future Dreams Breast Cancer Charity, with whom she launched her debut mastectomy swimwear line in 2015. Melissa has since been honoured with ‘Designer of the year’ in Paris as well as being awarded Swimwear Designer of the Year in London. SWIMWEAR
