The glittering GQ Men of the Year afterparty saw celebrity offspring stealing the show as Lennon and Gene Gallagher made a striking appearance that strongly recalled their famous father, Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher.
Gallagher Brothers Make Their Mark
On Tuesday evening at 180 Thames in London, the Gallagher brothers emerged as the undeniable highlights of the prestigious event's afterparty. Lennon and Gene Gallagher demonstrated their inherited sense of style, both dressed impeccably in coordinated black suits with matching ties.
The young men appeared completely at ease in the spotlight, casually smoking cigarettes while posing for waiting photographers. Their resemblance to their rock legend father was unmistakable, with their mannerisms and confidence echoing Liam's iconic stage presence.
Star-Studded Guest List
The afterparty attracted an impressive roster of celebrities from music, television and film. Maya Jama commanded attention in a stunning black dress featuring a dramatic plunging neckline. The Love Island presenter complemented her ensemble with a matching clutch bag and appeared in high spirits as she departed the celebration in a taxi.
Music sensation Leigh-Anne Pinnock showcased her incredible figure in a white plunging mini dress, adding height with matching heels and wrapping up against the evening chill in a sophisticated black coat.
Her Little Mix bandmate Jade Thirlwall made a sensational appearance in a black short-sleeved midi dress, accompanied by her boyfriend Jordan Stephens.
Fashion Highlights and Notable Appearances
The fashion statements continued with Eve Hewson cutting a glamorous figure in a beige midi dress paired with clear heels and a brown faux fur coat. Cynthia Erivo showed incredible energy despite having been in New York for the Wicked: For Good premiere just 24 hours earlier.
The actress, who graced one of GQ's covers, wrapped up warmly in a silver fringed coat before heading inside the venue. Sabrina Elba brought dramatic glamour in a red halterneck gown that clung to her toned figure and featured plunging sides, completing the look with matching heels.
Among the male attendees, Pierce Brosnan looked effortlessly cool in a pinstripe suit combined with a tailored coat and purple aviator sunglasses. Tom Hiddleston appeared suave in a burgundy suit worn with a white shirt and dark tie.
The event also featured appearances by Denise Welch in a black leather jacket and skirt combination, Mimi Webb in a purple strapless dress with shimmering detail, and Leomie Anderson who stunned in a white plunging dress.
Family Connections and Personal Sacrifices
Liam Gallagher shares Lennon with actress Patsy Kensit and Gene with singer Nicole Appleton. The appearance of his sons comes as Oasis prepares for their highly anticipated reunion tour, announced in August last year - 16 years after their dramatic split in 2009 when Noel Gallagher quit following a backstage altercation at the Rock en Seine festival in Paris.
In preparation for the tour, Liam has made significant lifestyle changes, quitting cigarettes and alcohol to protect his voice. When questioned by a fan on Twitter about missing his vices, the rock star acknowledged it was time to 'sort his life out', recognizing how much the tour means to dedicated fans.
Liam explained his decision saying: 'Oasis saved my life. It's about time I sorted my nappa out. I know how much this means to people so stopping drinking and smoking and snorting Gary baldies are sacrifices that needed to be made.'
He signed off the message with 'thems the rules MCFC', referencing his football team, Manchester City. When another fan inquired if he missed 'the occasional Guinness', Liam honestly replied: 'Yeah I miss talking absolute b***ocks when I'm bladdered.'
The GQ Awards ceremony is held annually in both London and Los Angeles, each event celebrating different groups of honorees from the worlds of entertainment, sport, and culture.
